One of my crafty friends asked if I would show her how I make the flowers for my cards. I've shared other flower making tutorials here on my blog but this is a new way! I hope you will give these flowers a try, they are easy and turn out so pretty! If you don't have a Sizzix die cutting machine or any of the dies I've used (Floral Dies used for the flowers on my card), you can substitute hand cut flowers (there are templates on Pinterest here: Free Paper Flower Templates). If you don't have Susan's Garden Tool Set for shaping the flowers, you can purchase a Fondant Ball Tool set on ebay that works the same way. (After searching, I don't think Susan's Garden Tool Set is available anymore but there is a similar set on eBay: McGill Paper Blossom Tool Kit and here is the fondant set I use: 4-Pcs-Fondant-Cake-Flower-Metal-Ball Tool) Oftentimes, I paint 90 lb. watercolor paper and use that for my flowers but for this tutorial, I used Recollections reddish/pink and green cardstock. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
