Ever wonder how to make a fabric & paper flower? Paper and fabric flowers, by themselves, are a hot trend right now so why not mix the two mediums together?
I love mixing these two elements together. The paper gives the fabric some structure and the fabric adds a softness to the paper. I am sharing a video that will help give you some ideas on how , you too, can create many wonderful flowers with scraps you have.
Here are the materials I used for this fabric and paper flower;
Tea for Two Designer Fabric #129308
Very Vanilla card stock # 101650
Big Shot Die Machine # 113439
Circles Scallop BigZ Die #113468
1/8″ Silver Mini Brads #122941
Piercing Tool #126189
Stampin’ Pierce Mat #126199
Stampin’ Spritzer 126185
Baja Breeze Re-inker #111844
Enjoy the video!
Now wasn’t that easy?
You can use any kind of paper; card stock, Designer Series Paper, newspaper, magazine pages and what ever you want to recycle. The important thing here is color, not pattern. I love mixing different types of paper together to make each flower unique, just like in nature.
Remember that even though I layered the paper in the back on this flower, you can alternate the paper & fabric in any combo you wish. You may also hold it together using hot glue if you wish but I like to use our mini 1/8″ brads because it is less bulky.
I am eager to hear how your fabric and paper flowers turn out!
Until we meet again. . . .
