Cold and rainy today in Georgia. I thought I would work on a few projects in my craft room. I am low on stash goodies to send out with my swaps and happy mail. I need a few flowers for embellishment too.
Pulled out my Spellbinders die S4-628, a 5 petal flower with 4 size variations.
I am following Tiffany McGill's technique for stacking petals, misting with water and scrunching. I used a tiny staple in the middle to hold the petal stack together. You can find Tiffany's videos on You Tube under, Tiffany Crafting Like A Boss McGill.
I tried 2 different petal stack for my flowers.
I used all 4 sizes of dies and stacked the graduated sizes. They turned out looking like Gardenias. I really liked the way they are loose and relaxed. I probably will add some diamond dust to the edges for just a little shimmer.
Next I stacked the petals 4 high with all the same size die. They look more like Cottage Roses. I am going to add some Pink Shimmer Mist to these for a little hint of color and sparkle.
I hope this inspires you to create something of your own.
Best Wishes and Hugs,
Carol
