Hi guys!
A fun post today. You know that stack of out dated phone books pull
a couple out before you get rid of the stack, trust me on this~
they are fun to craft with. The tissue type paper covered in text make the thin dies
so easy to cut several layers at one time. They are great for journal pages
and collage pages too. I made vintage flowers !!!
Instructions:
1. Tear three to four pages out together (keep them together) and use a spray mist
or ink to add color.
2. Heat dry to speed the process up. Add as many colors as you like. Watercolors
would be great too.
3. The half sheet made two complete flowers. Each flower section has three layers.
Scrunch the layers up for more dimension.

4. Staple in the center, to hold the flower together. Shade with ink.
