Flowers & silk paper

Tissue paper is a wonderful material to work with and today I will show you some flowers I've even done.
Tissue paper is incredibly cheap and available in every imaginable color. It will welcome Mists, Crackle accents and looks really good in layers. When I am doing flowers yourself, As I struggle often with paper or cardboard, is strong and difficult to fold. The problem I am completely out of when I make flowers out of tissue paper. It also provides a more simple expression.

This flower is simple, very simple.

Fold tissue paper in so many layers you want. Draw a circle on the top layer

Take a sharp pair of scissors and cut out the circle – Now you have already seen such a beautiful flower

I separated the pile apart and curled a couple of layers, it gives a little more dimension to the flower. I have also turned and twisted layers slightly, and browse them, as in a book. Work a little with it until you are satisfied. It is very grateful material to work with.

The flower is assembled with a brad, then you are free to glue each layer.

The next flower is inspired napkin folding.

If you stop when you have folded, cut and tied, then you have a really nice bow.

I had torn the paper into little pieces, when I folded the first, It does not matter, it can be stored in layers. This has got pearl glimmermist finally, but unfortunately it is difficult to see in the picture. Also try to blacken the flowers or give them Stickles.

This flower has haunted the scrapverden for many years. And it has been done in many ways.

You may in particular. FRA is in her intro Crate Paper

I have cut a lot of different circles, also some of the same size, to allow more layers and more dimension.Dernæst I spayet with glimmermist. When you lose tissue paper, as mist in a box,, a single hint or two is enough and put the paper down in lost. It pulls quickly into, and you can take them up from the lost and lay them out to dry.

A little drying, it does not last long.

And then collection by size. A little Stickles and Crackle accent and drying again. Lovely, simple and very sweet.

The last flower is really nice and my own favorite.

Here you need a number of circles – divisible by four. I have used 12 this flower + a Bottom. The circles will be equal, so you can benefit from using the technique from the first flower in this article.

Now you fold all the circles in this way

I put a circle on a double-sided adhesive sheet and gathers flower

Start the first layer by placing four layers at the tip apex

The next layer should be over collections and again pointed at tip.

Between each layer I put double sided tape, I've cut from the same sheet as I used to scratch. You can certainly also use double-sided tape or a gluedot.

The last layer I put back on the joints, So they lie in the same manner as the first layer.

I fluff the flower a little and give it a button widget in the middle.

Off the silk paper and we'll see you soon at Scrapsisters forum.
