Handmade Flowers

We have a fabulous online group for Indian crafters called ICR [Indian Craft Room]started by Ash.It hosts challenges and Swaps.The last swap was 20 flowers and 20 buttons.
My partner was Bhavana and she is such a talented lady I was apprehensive what to get her.I chose 10 flowers from the shop and I made 10 flowers .
1. Crystal Flowers can be made at home.Here is the link to the tutorial to make crystal flowers

2.Tulips- these were made using the heart punch.

3.This is a 3 D decoupage flower made by layering the images with double sided foam tape.

4.Playdough flowers- Made from AMOS clay they are lightweight and easy to make.Here is the link to the tutorial to make playdough flowers

5.Felt Rose: this flower was made by cutting a circle of felt and cutting a spiral and rolling it.Very much like spiral paper roses.

6.Accordion Folded Flower. This is super easy- fan fold a strip of paper and stick the ends.

7.Punch craft flower.I made these using 2 types of flower punches.The leaf has a central vein embossed.

  23. Hello Friend!!!!
    Your flowers are always so amazing. I tried the circle punch technique on a post a little while ago and I love how they turned out. I will be sure to let my sis know she has well wishes from India. BTW, I hope you don't mind, but I am holding off going to the post office until my big candy draw on the 21st. That way I only need to make one trip because I have a few things that need to go out. I will let you know when it has been mailed so that you know!
    :O) and Huggz,
    Jessica

  43. Really loved your art and you won't believe I tried 4 flowers and gifted to my friend and she was more than like I had gifted her million dollar gift.

    I am gemologist and would like to provide free stones to you and would love to see if you can make any art out of these.
