Satin flowers with a twist~

Hi everyone ~ had a great weekend, did a little junkin' and that is always good for the soul.  I have been making flowers ~ all kinds so just so your not surprised that is what this weeks blog post will be on. Lets start with these~

I used satin material and cut circles with my Sizzix die, then I cut into the circle about an 1/8" .  This made a four petal flower.

You can't tell in this photo but when you put  the petal  on top of the flame to curl the edges {of the satin } it burns a bit to give it a cool shading effect.

After I curled all four petals I used my Tim Holtz tiny attacher and stapled the center and put a pearl in the middle of the flower. Here are some more pictures of the finished flowers.  I added some leaves by Prima also.

Beautiful but important than that they were fun to make!!!! Have a great Monday and I'll see ya soon!!

Satin Flowers~different ways!

Just a quick blog post to show the completed flowers.  I sewed around the edges on a couple and added different kinds of leaves and stick pins look great in them.  They are held together with a needle and thread and Helmar 450 Quick dry.  I even used some mists on them for some shimmer.  Just wanted to show you all the different ways to dress them up or dress them down.
