Hi Everyone,
I thought I would share a quick tutorial on the flower I made last week on one of my cards that I posted. I have been asked by several people so here you go:)
Start out with a couple cone coffee filters and some glimmer mist. I used Tattered Angel glimmer mist.Colors~Jingle Bells, Granite and Candy Apple Red.
Spray in on both sides and then let it fry. To speed the drying process I used my heating gun and it dried in a matter of a couple minutes.
Then use your SU scallop punch and punch out 4 which will give you 8 because your punching through both layers. Do that on all of the filters.
I then pierced a whole in the center of all layers so that I could put a brad in the center.
Then just start gathering the scallop towards the center, folding, pinching and turning. Do that with each layer, Don't be afraid to pinch it tightly because it will all feather out at the end.
I just kind of gently work the flower down a little and it forms into this beautiful flower. Pretty
ha:) ~this is Granite
That shimmery glimmer mist shows up so nice on the red:) ~this is Candy Apple Red.
Check out the yellow~this is Jingle Bells. Love them all and they are SO easy!!!
I hope you find time and make one. You will love them and you will want to put them on everything, LOL! I seen this on a video but I can not for the life of me remember who's blog I saw it on. So, I do apologize for not being able to give the credit to who it belongs to. I was just so inspired and I hope you are too:)
Hope it wasn't too long for you.....first tutorial :)
Thanks for visiting,

ReplyDeleteSherri, That is great I was going to do a tutorial on the same thing today, but I am still cleaning my art room from my frenzy of crafting,
ReplyDeleteThat was the same punch I use also. I will still do one it will be a bit different tan yours. Love those colors great minds think a like. After I do mine I link people to come over and see yours so they can have a variety of ways to do it.

First of all, your blog looks so cute!!!! Also, these flowers are amazing! This is such a creative way to use coffee filters, and a great way to incorporate some of that beautiful glimmer mist a lot of us have laying around! I have a couple bottles, but I'm never sure how to use them, thanks for the inspiration! :)

ReplyDeleteThose flowers are so beautiful and your tutorial is amazing! Thanks for showing us how you made these flowers. I can't wait to give them a try. Tfs and have a great day. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this tutorial, Sherrie! I'd made one of these flowers last year - but had forgotten about it! I did mine with tissue paper though. I've seen a few people using that Glimmer Mist. I'm going to have to look for it. I have something similar from SU but it doesn't change the colours the same way.
