3-D Flowers

Don't you just love finding new ideas? I do.
Card 1- I found these flowers on a U-Tube SU video. They use the scallop punch, a bit of glue add a rhinestone brad to the centre.
Cards 2 & 3 - My SU friends in USA received convention swap cards with this technique (I do not know who orginally came up with idea - but thank you)
This weekend I am heading away for a stamping/scrapping/eating weekend and I will be demonstrating how to make the flowers. My next post will show the 6" x 6" scrapbook page I created for a swap during the weekend.

Hi Margaret...I love all of these cards....esp cards 2 and 3. Is there a link or tutorial on the method for these flowers...I love them and have more than a banal fascination for 3D papercraft. If so...would you be so kind to let me know?? TFS these awesome cards.

January Cyberchallenge - punched flowers.

Image
Images:(c)1990-2010 Stampin'Up(r) Artwork:Margaret L Crawford Our INKlings cyberchallenges have began for 2010. Tonight our leader, Jayne is setting the challenges. Our first challenge is to use SU punches to make a paper flower and use it on a card, scrapbook page or 3D item. I have used the round scallop punch (each flower has 3 punched scallops), cut a small way into each scallop and then pushed back to create a 3-D effect then I added a rhinestone brad to the centre of each flower. I used my markers to colour the leaves and then spritzed with water before adding to card. Challenge 1 completed.

Here is another layout I have created recently.  I have decided to post it for a challenge at ARTastic - I hope they allow more than one entry as I have already done one layout for their May challenge - Scrap the Girls. This photo was taken when I met up with friends that I attended TAFE with many years ago.  We completed the Advanced Needlecraft Certificate at Hornsby TAFE and became firm friends during this time.   But as life goes on we lost contact - until Facebook got us back together 20 years later!..  They caught the train up and we had lunch and much catch up at my home before a walk on the beach.   Again here is the inspiration photo at ARTastic, the criteria Girls Only. I was further inspired by a layout by Emily Pitt found on   Debbie Hodge  from 2013 that I found whilst blog surfing. Thank you Debbie I have left some thanks for you on your blog. Thank you for looking, Margaret.
