Happy Saturday,As I'm sure you will all have worked out by now I do have a soft spot for flowers, on my cards, on my stamp designs and also in my new Apartment I have vases of them lol So today at 8pm I will be launching the One Day Special with Creative Expressions making 3D paper fl;owners using papers and dies. I hope you can tune in if not tonight then Ill be back tomorrow ( sunday) at 9am, 12pm, 4pm and 7pm on Freeview 39, Sky 663 or online at www.hcohanda.com.
I thought therefore today I would show you a few of the demo pieces I have made for the shows. Some of these will be full demos however a great deal of the prep I have been doing is on making the flowers so expect lots of techniques and tips which you can use to make paper and fabric flowers!
Above are a couple of the roses made using the fabulous Paper Stack ( thats precept how easy is that?!?) from DCWV. I will also demo how to make the presentation box which just adds, IMHO, a touch of class to any paper flower gift. A great point with paper flowers is how useful they are to send to people in hospital as Real flowers are no longer allowed.
The second flower her which I feel looks like a peony, is made using the same basic pieces form the pack. Tomorrow I will be showing how you can make at least 4 different flowers form the paper rose section!
Morning John, today's project is really pretty, looking forward to your tip's and techniques, I will be tuning in xx
ReplyDeleteMorning John, a great project used to do these all the time when Sue first show us how looking forward to see the dies and your tips on how the die works.

ReplyDeleteStay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi John, these flowers are beautiful, how lovely would they be for someone in hospital, where you cannot take real flowers anymore. A tutorial on the box would be great too. Take care, hope the shows go well. Bx

ReplyDeleteWow! These look great, smashing, super! Beautiful florals and the gift box is marvellous. Great point about flowers not being allowed in hospital. At least these beauties don't need watering either. Interested to see how you do the stems. Now need embossed acetate vase to pop them in lol!
