Tutorial Series: Handmade Flowers 2

Hello there! Today a new video tutorial is up for my handmade flowers series. This time I'm showing you yet another way of making beautiful flowers using the same dies used for Handmade Flowers 1. This technique can be used with any flower punch or die cuts and doesn't require any special tools. Here's a preview of the flowers I made and the card I created with them:




Supplies: Heartfelt Creations Botanical Wings dies / Our Daily Bread Designs: Fancy Foliage and Flourished Star Pattern dies, Rustic Beauty Papers / Spellbinders: Mary Border Strip and A2 Card Creator A dies/ McGill: Flower Tweezer / Ranger: Peeled Paint and Shaded Lilac re-inkers, Minimisters, Ink Blending Tool / UHU All Purpose Adhesive / Bead Landing Word Beads / Recollections Iridiscent Rhinestones / Lara's Crafts Jute Twine / Miscelaneous: Foam tape, Leather textured cardstock in white, light green and light brown, water mister

I was inspired on the recent Cardabilities sketch to put this card together. I wanted it to be a colorful, Spring themed anniversary or wedding card. To learn how I made these flowers check out the video below:


I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and card. Make sure you subscribe to my Youtube channel and to this blog's newsletter to receive upcoming videos for this series. Some of you have shared comments and questions and also the flowers you've created using the techniques shown in my previous videos. Thanks so much for that!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Stay tuned because I'll be sharing some exciting news soon!
