Punched Flower Tutorial

Zulma, My Little Scrappy Owl, has made this easy and beautiful flower tutorial, that I'm sure you'll all going to love ;-)

******************************************

Hi! I'm so happy today because I had a lot of comments about my mini flowers bouquet. I love to work with little things and that is a challenge for me. For this one I used:

1. Martha Stewart punches - Hydrengia (25 pcs aprox., small size) and maple leave (5 pcs)

2. Marvy 1" circle punch (2 pcs)

3. stylus or paint brush

4. glue

5. twizzers

6. gel pen or any kind of paint(stickles, markers, chalk, etc.)

Take one circle and make small cuts around it, save the other for final step.

Put circle in a foam base and with your stylus make circular motions to end with a semi-circle and do the same with the mini flowers.
Now, use your favorite glue and twizzers to attach the flower starting with the base or bottom of the semi-circle.

Continue gluing the flower around the circle and finish at the top.
Glue 5 leaves to the second circle and make small dots in the center of each flower with gel pen .
Glue flowers to the leave base.This is the result. Isn't a cutie.

2 Step bird rose bud.

You'll need: 2 way glue pen, red and green card stock, 2 step bird punch, post it notes.

You'll need to punch one whole punch in green and also one wing shape in red,

Using a post it note attach the green bird to the sticky edge so it makes it easier for you to slide the bird back into the punch,

slide the tail of the bird into the wing shape of the punch, you might like to lift the very tip of the tail out of the punch so you don't cut it off then use the punch to create a bud shape,

you'll be needing these three pieces that you have punched, the red wing the green branch and the green tail piece,

Using your 2 way glue pen stick the green tail on top of the red wing then layer this onto your green branch, now you have a tiny rose bud!

These roses look gorgeous if you use a sponge dauber to add some depth around the edges of the punched pieces. 

Thanks for checking out my tutorial,

Punches Border Strip Flower Tutorial

Ilina Crouse is a creative stamper, cardmaker and scrapbooker... and has gladly accepted to share with us this *clever* tutorial. I just can't wait to give it a try! ;-D

**********************

Materials you will need:

12x1 strip of dsp (cardstock would work, but it's better with dsp)
sticky strip
1 3/8" punch
scallop trim punch (or any other border punch)
buttons late ( or other buttons or large brads)
linen thread
paper crimper
scrap cs to punch the circle

1. Punch your 12" x 1" dsp strip with the border punch, only on one side.2. Run it through the crimper 4-5 times, each time flattening the folds. Don't flatten them the last time you run the strip through the crimper.


3. Punch a 1 3/8" circle and cover it with sticky strip. I was out of sticky strip so I used artist tape from the art supply store.

4. Start adhering the strip around the circle making little pleats.


5. After you have finished one layer continue to the second one. My ends met at same point, so I didn't need to cut the strip. But you can finish where ever you would like and cut it there.


6. I used chocolate chip button and made a bow using the linen thread. Added a dimensional and adhered it to the middle of the flower. And there you have it. You can use it on a card, scrapbook page etc.
