Rolled Paper Flowers on Sycamore Street

The Second February Stamp Club Card

To make the Rolled Paper Flowers I think I followed THIS TUTORIAL on youtube.  There are so many out there!  There are some other neat tutorials  that would be kind of fun to try.  Just slight versions of the same thing:  HERE and HERE.

The one thing I found when making these flowers is that the bigger the circle and wider your spiral cut, the bigger your flower will be.  Just experiment.  It's fun!!

The flowers shown in the photo use the 2-1/2" and 1-3/4" circle punches.  Don't forget to add a few glue dots at the bottom of the flower and then stick the flap over it to keep the flower together.

By the way, this will not fit in a regular envelope.

October Stamp Club Card

This card has a lot of steps to complete but most are fairly straight forward just by looking at the card.  To make the Fan Fold Flower you can view a TUTORIAL HERE.  For this "flower",  I cut a strip of DSP at 1" x 11" and then scored every 1/4".  The measurements are different on the tutorial.  We stuck the flower on a punched out circle with sticky tape on it.  You can also place it on a jumbo sticky round.  Have I told you that I love those things?!?!  :)

April Stamp Club

Vintage Vogue

1. I created a template for reverse masking the rectangle in the center of the card. I cut a piece of card board to 3 1/2 x 4 3/4. I then scored around the edges at 1". I then cut out the inside rectangle using a ruler and Hobby Blade.

2. Place the template over the Naturals White card stock. It should fit perfectly. Sponge Barely Banana ink over the rectangle, leaving a bit of white/unsponged area near the center of the rectangle. Lightly sponge Pumpkin Pie ink around the edges of the rectangle.

3. Stamp two "leafy flourishes" over left hand corner of rectangle in Old Olive. Stamp two small flowers in Pumpkin Pie.

4. Stamp one large flower and one small flower on scrap pieces of Natural White card stock. Cut out. Add brad and dimensionals. Place over leafy flourish.

Fine Flourish Paper Flower with Hand-made Button

To create Button:

1. Punch out six circles using 3/4" Circle Punch. Glue together using Tombo Liquid Glue.

2. Using another button as a template, draw two dots with a pencil (or do it free hand). Use the crop-o-dile to punch out two holes.

3. Using a needle and embroidery thread, sew the button onto the paper flower. You may want to use a paper piercer to make two holes in the flower so your needle goes through the card stock more easily. Also, instead of tying a knot on the thread, just tape it on the back of the card.

To create a Paper Flower:

1. In Black Stazon ink, stamp a Fine Flourish on Whisper White card stock.

2. Punch out three flowers using the Large Fancy Flower punch.

3. Spritz the card stock with water and crumple.

4. Uncrumple and let dry. Adhere all three layers of flower with button and embroidery thread.

Complete Card:

1. Stamp Medallion stamp with VersaMark on Bashful Blue card stock.

2. Punch out border on More Mustard card stock using the Scallop Border Punch. Adhere to the Bashful Blue card stock. Then adhere to Basic Black card base.

3. Tie Old Olive Grosgrain into a loose knot. Stick the thin strip of Old Olive card stock (the flower stem) through the knot, then tighten the knot.

4. Glue them stem onto the card, add the completed flower. And don't forget the sentiment of your choice.
