SQOTD - 4/1 (fave flowers)

What are your favorite flowers to make?

I honestly haven't done very many. I see all the tutorials but always end up just slapping on some store bought ones. I did make some yarn flowers yesterday though. I needed a "Y" item for my stash challenge & thought of yarn. You can see my flowers here...

I've been wanting to make some of those grungeboard flowers forever but a certain Nancy needs to come over & motivate me! lol

Dictionary paper flowers (it has to be thin but strong paper)

like these




I also sometimes make them with more layers and no center - more like a carnation.

golly choosing a favorite is hard!! i do like using music sheets for them though

I'd have to say making my own.

I recently made a bunch of cloth flowers out of ribbons. That was a hoot! Also, I made cloth flowers out of left over fabric to put on some purses.

I enjoy making my own. They are quick, simple and cheap. I also have been learning to quill and that always adds a special touch.

Love your flowers Mar!
I like making fabric ones best, and scrunched lollipop flowers.

I love just making simple flowers by twirling trim n a small punched circle. But I love them all!

I don't have a favourite flower to make, often resorting to my not inconsiderable stash of store-bought when I do need one. But my favourite thing to do with flowers is to find unusual centres for them, often in keeping with the theme of the layout.

I don't usually make my own, but recently I made one I loved, it looked like a rose. I have to find the blog and share it.

I found the link, it is a youtube.

She used an owl punch but I just cut my own using the Cricut.

Thanks for the link Donna. Just watched the video, the rose is lovely.
