For these flowers, I stamped Berry Burst ink onto Whisper White and Berry Burst cardstock, then punched them out using my new Daisy Punch. Each flower requires two sets of petals. Assembly is easy - just a couple of glue dots to adhere the flower layers. Be sure to offset the petals for the best affect. I used more glue dots to adhere the flowers to the stems, which are 18 gauge wire.
I cut 1/4 inch wide by 10 inch long strips of Whisper White and Berry Burst card stock. To fringe the paper, I first used my kitchen snips, but found they weren't cutting finely. My paper snips from Stampin' Up! did a wonderful job. There are expensive fringers from quilling companies, and I own one, but I prefer cutting with scissors. Once cut, I simply rolled the paper into the shape you see below and adhered them with glue dots. Using a 1/2" Circle Punch, punch Whisper White and Berry Burst circles - one for each flower. Poke a small hole in the circle,and 'thread' the wire through it bending the end of the wire in a loop shape. Then adhere the circle to the wire. Last step, adhere the flower(s) to the wire, with, you've got it...glue dots!
I took the pics in my garden. A lovely backdrop to my flowers.
Did you notice the little 'water droplet' on the Berry Burst petal on the right side of the above pic? It's a Glitter Enamel Dot - perfect for a realistic look!
Aren't these just the sweetest!
