Handmade flowers

Hello, Crafters!

Today at the Rainbow Craftykari blog, I am here to inspire you for the new challenge for the month of May. 
The theme for this challenge is "Handmade flowers". 
Any flowers on the project made by you. 

As an inspiration post, I have two projects here today where I have used the flowers made by me. 
(Please do bear with me as this is a very picture heavy post. But as I wanted to cover each and every side/angle of the project I could not skip adding any of these pictures...Not to mention some close-ups of my blooms.... ;-))




Let's begin with the first one!!!

Project 1 - Altered Tin can.


I covered the can with a corrugated sheet I received as a packing material. Stuck a white laced burlap ribbon at the bottom and a crochet lace at the top of the can. I made 3 bright coloured blooms for this project and covered the centre of the blooms with tiny white pearls. Arranged and stuck the blooms on the can and added few leaf die-cuts. Lastly tied a twine around the can and attached a ready tag with a wooden clothespin.

Few more pictures






 My second project is a "Thank you Tag"


I began with stencilling the card with texture paste and covered it all with white gesso. Next, I used colour splash and heat set it. I made 3 blooms again for this project (same blooms). This time I covered the centre of the blooms with black beads. Added leaf die-cuts and a butterfly. Adhered a heat-embossed sentiment with foam adhesive. Tied two ribbons at the top. Lastly, to cover up the empty spaces I doodled the texture with a black gel pen.

I had great fun making these blooms. I hope you too enjoyed my post.

Hoping to see you participate in the challenge and also looking forward to what flowers you all make.
