Renunculus and Anemone

 

For now I have packed away the paints and brushes

but I kept the crepe paper and the scissors. Working on tutorials

for the crepe paper flowers takes time but it is rewarding.

When you create a new flower, even from a template, flower number three

is the better one. So I say that you don't need to worry if the first two are not perfect,

you learn by making and creating.

Keep record of what you learn.

 



We had a cold spell recently and I needed to make something

that reminded me of Spring. So I made some bulbs.

 

This small bouquet that fits into a teacup was a gift for my mother. 



Crepe Paper Magnolias

For these two Magnolia's I used two different templates.

It doesn't really matter, because they still look like Magnolias.

 

 

 An extra bud and some leaves also make

them look more natural.

 

Then I had to ask a friend how to photograph the white

flowers. It is quite tricky, because the light keeps bouncing off

the white paper and surroundings. But a side light did the trick.

 

I am doing a faerie flower hat for the next issue of Creative Hobbies Magazine.

Every little girls dream for a flower princess party.
