Get in on the flower frenzy

By Kelly Hansen

Have you noticed the trend of flowers on projects lately? I have, and I’m loving it. When it comes to embellishments I’m always looking for something different, cute, and easy to make. Take a look at this layout made with handmade tissue paper flowers I made. It was so quick and easy!



This is what you’ll need:

- 3 to 4 sheets of white or color tissue paper
- pencil
- scissors

Step 1:

With all sheets together in a stack, free hand the shape and size you would like (photo below). I made 3 different sizes for more dimension.



Step 2: Holding all sheets in hand, cut out your flowers  (photo below).


 


Step 3: You’re going to wad up each flower shape individually. This helps create that textured look.



Step 4: Now layer your flowers. Add button, brad, or any other embellishment to the center of your flower.




** To give your tissue flowers a different look you can ink, glimmer mist or even paint your tissue paper before starting***
