Dreamin' B & T Decorative Paper from Close To My Heart |
The two strips are 12" long. One is 1" wide, the other is 1 1/2" wide. The strips are punched with the Fiskars edge punch. Each peak and valley is scored and folded accordion style. The ends are glued together to make a continuous loop with makes a little lamp shade looking thing. See below.

B & T paper is now double sided with different designs. Either side would be pretty as a rosette. |
I stacked the smaller layer on top of the larger rosette before hot gluing to make one unit, rather than two separate flowers. I then made a seam binding ribbon flower on sticky tape to adhere to the top of the rosette.

This is a perfect flower to add to a card intended for mailing. I would probably use an oversized envelope with a little padding if I didn't want it to get smooshed.
very interesting thread
