Pretty Paper Flowers


If there's one thing I don't get tired of, it's flowers. Hi, it's me Diana and I'm showing you how I made paper flowers!
It's actually very very easy.




To make these pretty flowers, you'll need:

White cardstock (or even copy paper)
Clearsnap Emboss Gloss
brads
Clearsnap Glitter
Smooch Spray


Cut out two sizes of hearts. You'll need a smaller size for the center, and a larger size for the petals. Cut out four small hearts and between 8-10 larger sized hearts.
You're going to need to make a whole in the point of the hearts. For this, I used an embroidery needle (it's perfect because embroidery needles are nice and thick).
To give the flowers an "aged" look, crinkle them up.
Now, spray with smooch spray in the colors of your choice. I used blue and purple shades.
Apply the emboss gloss onto the hearts. Do it randomly, don't over analyze it too much.
Sprinkle on some glitter, in your favorite shade. I used the shade ocean spray, by Clearsnap.
Heat it up with a heat gun.
Layer the small hearts around in a circle, and put a brad in the hole you made.
Now, add the larger hearts, also arranging them in a circle.
Close up the brad, and you've got yourself a beautiful flower!
