GIFT BOX WITH FLOWER TOPPER

  Mon, 04 January 2016 Die Cutting

Good morning Crafters... Feeling very proud of my self today as I cud create a beautiful flower using a basic spellbinder die....lol

I want you all to dig in to your collection of dies and give them a new definition.
It was quite challenging and fun !!
We all hoard dies which create very specific things like a flower , border or frame...
guys now it's time to twist and turn your creativity and create wonders by rethinking about their use.
My first attempt was not that complex and i am sure lot of us have these dies...so what are we waiting for ....
Let's begin
Step 1: pick up 4 adjacent scalloped circles dies. Cut them out from your favorite paper. ( 3 each as few extras are always good to keep)
 

Step 2: sponge the edges with prima chalk inks to add interst .
 
 
Step 3: cut out a circle in the centre of all the precut circles . This helps in moulding the flower and to keep it flat from the base.

 
 Step 4: cut a slit after every 3 scallops and start moulding the flower and give it some creaes and softness.

 
Step 5: do the same to all the layer...easy isn't it? 
 
 
Step 6: by moulding bending and cupping the layers I assembled this gorgeous flower ...

 
Step 7: add glitter or diamond dust in top  of the flower and it will the most glamourous flower u have ever seen.��
 
 
Now it's time to add it to your project and it will b the show stopper for sure...
I added it over a heart shaped box and it has become so attractive and pretty ..
 
 
 
 
Hope u will give this a try and do let me know what u feel about this tutorial
Have a gr8 day..
Hugs
