Sharing a
different kind of craft today, a teacup posy featuring a bunch of foamiran peonies
I made.
I made this as a
gift for a friend for her birthday. I wasn’t
sure what kind of flowers to make, just knew I wanted to make a posy of
foamiran flowers but the photo inspiration at Just Us Girls looked like a peony
and I had a tutorial bookmarked for foamiran peonies so went with them. I hand cut all of the flowers and leaves, I just
made myself a template from acetate, as I didn’t have any dies. Each one is also individually coloured to
give the flowers a tone toned and more realistic look. It all took the better part of Sunday but I think
it was worth it as they are really pretty and realistic to look at.
Over at Southern Girls they’re looking for flower projects so I am linking up my posy
there. At Always Fun they want to see
anything but a card so am also entering their challenge with my very non-card
creation.
