Flower from Circles

I have been demonstreating various floral techniques for cards, boxes and so on this weekend and on this card I've made a flower using just five punched circles of patterned paper with sponnged ink on the edges, crumpled up tightly in the fingers, unfurled then stuck together to form a 'flower'. A button tied with thread was added for the centre, stem was cut using fancy scissors and the leaves used an Xcut embossing punch, Background papers are from one of Papermania Capsule collections.

  4. Great idea for making the flowers and love the colours on here. Ooops, just realised I've more or less repeated Judith's comment, Lol! Still it show we're right!

    Sorry I'm a bit behind. I love the daisy card too. I have a real soft spot for daisies for some reason.
