How to Create Newspaper Flowers by Angie
SSC Design Team
Simply Scrapping Crafts- www.simplyscrapping.ning.com
First get a piece of newspaper with whatever you want..just lots of words, scan it into your computer, and print off on both sides of white cardstock.
Cut to size and place it on your sticky sheet of your Cricut Machine.. you can skip this step if you have 3 different sizes of a flower punch, I just don't have any flower punches so this is what I used.
I used the Walk in the Garden Cartridge, did 6 flowers at 2", 6 flowers at 1.2" and 6 flowers at 1"... cut them and take them off your mat. I also inked them all in brown and black ink.
Cut all the 1.2" flowers from the center of one petal to the center of the flower
With the 1" flower cut all like this
with a good adhesive fold and put one petal on the other to form a cone like shape.
do the same with the 3 petal 1" flower
roll the 2 petal flower.. add adhesive to bond together. Now start to build it.. the 2" at the bottom, use some tacky glue and place the cone shaped 1.2" flower now do the same with the 3 petal cone 1" flower and last the rolled 1" flower. set it dry and there you go instant Newspaper Flowers . I hope I explained this properly and if you have any questions just leave me a comment and I will get back to you all.
You can also use just cardstock and skip the printing part of this. I hope you enjoy this and will try it. Remember Have FUN Angie First get a piece of newspaper with whatever you want..just lots of words, scan it into your computer, and print off on both sides of white cardstock.
