more creating

here is another layout from our cruise photos

this time i have used Bo Bunny A Gift of Love Pattern Papers and for the flowers i used my new Martha Stewart fringe scissors, which i just love,  i cut a strip of patterned paper, rolled it up and then for one flower i rolled each "petal" to make a curled flower and for the other flower i left the "petals" straight matching the patterned paper.
ETA - Check Carole Jansen's blog for a tutiorial on making these flowers


here are some other flowers i have made ...
the sm lilac flower is made using the fringing scissors this time cutting wide satin ribbon and then i held the ribbon over a flame which gives a curled look.
for the dk Purple flower uses wide satin ribbon this time cutting approx 1 cm apart and then holding over a flame - see here for Rhonna's tutorial
lastly i made this one using my lg scallops nestabilities and tissue paper, i just folded a sheet of tissue paper up to a small square and then ran it through the cuttlebug with the die, then popped a brad in the middle to hold all the pieces together and then starting from the top scrunched each piece, then i sprayed it with gold maya mist for a slight sparkle ☺ I saw this on a blog but cannot remember which one sorry.
