Paper Flowers

Paper Flowers are quite popular lately, so I wanted to feature them at the last Stamp-A-Stack. I wanted them to be on a card, so we made these:


Stamp Set: Itty Bitty Banners

Colors: Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, Real Red, Very Vanilla

Accessories: Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper, Fancy Fan Embossing Folder, Bitty Banners Framelits, Antique Brads, Blossom Punch

The flowers are very easy to make!

1) Punch 5 flowers from card stock
2) Punch a hole (or use a paper piercer) in the center of each
3) Spritz each flower with water (I used 2 sprays from a Stampin' Spritzer)
4) Scrunch each punch, then open
5) Layer the flowers and add a brad
6) "Fluff" the petals of your flower

The flowers will vary with the punch you use:


Blossom


Fancy Flower


Scallop Circle


Here are my variations together, along with one from a swap card I received that uses 2 colors of card stock
