May 5th, 2010Here are some tips on how to make beautiful flowers using some of the different papers we carry.
Stardream paper lends itself for making shimmering flowers very easy. Here is a vintage layered flower that we made for the LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE kit.
Take your favorite Stardream color card stock and a round scallop punch and punch out 4 or 5 scallops. With a spray bottle mist each punch on both sides getting the paper wet enough to crumple up. Crumple each one up in a ball and then uncrumple them and lay flat for a minute so that they are almost dry. (You want them to be pliable and not completely dry or they won’t squish up at the end). Now with fast grab or strong adhesive layer each flower on top of each other with a dab of glue just in the middle. Put a button or an embellishment of your choice in the middle of the top flower and then with your fingers pushing on the middle of the embellishment just scrunch up all around on the sides.
