Try It Tuesday~more flowers!!!


I warned you Monday, a week full of flowers~the handmade kind.
The first one {green material} I used a cardboard circle about 2" and put Helmar 450 on it and twisted my material all around. I tucked the end under and put felt on the back of the cardboard.  The leaves are from Prima, the center is Jenni Bowlin and Prima {resin flowers}.  The ones the the right were done like this~


Kind of a knock off the Jillibean Soup ones.  I really like these and they were quick and easy using the Glubers by Cosmo Cricket.  Then I thought~what about painting them~


I did beige so I could try the Twinkling H2O's by Lumin Arte on them. 


Painting them worked great and so easy and quick!! 


And here you can see I added them on top of felt flowers I cut using my Sizzix dies.  The centers are Epiphany Crafts round 14 bubble cap, Jenni Bowlin's buttons and some felt leaves that I had.  Let me know what you think about these flowers!!!! See ya soon!!
