Paper flowers

 I have had lots of late nights reading and watching utube video's all about amking paper flowers...there really are some wonderfully talented people out there and too many sites to mention hear. I spent a couple of hours the other day making these flowers and had lots of fun. These are the first lot which has given me the confidence to go a bit further now and start experimenting with inks and paints etc to get the colours to match my scrap booking pages.
One site I came across on my nightly trawls through Utube is http://what-a-beautiful-mess.blogspot.com/. and it is  absolutely beautiful and has super instructions . What an inspiration  to scrapbookers.. all over the world..the pages that Lisa produces are absolutely gorgeous.

 After spending enormous amonts of money on   flowers from the scrap booking shops I decided that I had better look for an alternative, as it was getting out of hand what I was spending. I have lots of fun creating these and yesterday purchased a few more punches to vary the style and size. Watch this space..................
