Crimped Paper Flowers or Crimped Card Stock Flowers

My downline, Cindi, shared these flowers with me and I have had a ball making them!!  They are fun and really turn out beautiful!  And you can match any color!

 

Supplies: 

Two to Three pieces of Card Stock cut 2 ½” wide (any length depending on how many flowers you want to make)

Scallop Circle Punch (119854, page 200)

Small Brad

Paper Piercing Tool (105826, page 198) and Mat Pack (105826, page 198)

Crimper  (101618, page 198)

Step 1.  Load up two pieces of  card stock in the crimper and run it through 12 times.  To make it easier, you can run it through ALMOST to the end and then before it pops out, run it back through.  Makes it much easier than reloading everytime

Step 2:  Now punch out your scallop circles from the crimped card stock.

Step 2: Punch out your scallop circles from the crimped card stock. 

 
Step 3.  Run the three scallop circles (you will need 3 for each flower) again through the crimper three times

 
Step 4.  Take each scallop circle and gently tear it apart.  Start with about three scallops and separate the layers of card stock – then gently pull one back from the other – a few tears in the center won’t matter.

 

 

 
Step 5.  Layer the six scallops together and pierce them in the center with the paper piercing tool.  Add a brad (just a simple brad – doesn’t have to be fancy, because it won’t be seen) to hold all the layers together.

 
 
Step 6.  Using a sponge dauber, sponge around all edges – feathering so you can get all the layers

 
Step 7:  Start with the top scallop and scrunch it up to the center

 

Step 8.  Do this with all six layers, scrunching them up.  Don’t be shy – scrunch them really good!!

 
 
Step 9.  Now gently fold down the edges and maneuver the layers to make your flower

 
 
Here's a card I made and added the flower

 
 
And the shadow box card with the flowers on the belly band - I'll share this box next week!
