Flowering dogwood and chocolate brown stripes


Hello fellow crafters
Today’s inspiration comes with flowering dogwood flowers, offset against chocolate brown stripes. The lovely striped paper is from Lemoncraft.






To make the flowers, use Heartfelt Creations flowering dogwood stamp set. Stamp the flowers using archival ink rose madder. Only lightly add a bit of the same colour to the edges of the flower petals using a finger dauber.
Cut the flowers out, using the co-ordinating die set.
Place the flowers face down on a flower shaping mat and shape at the back of each petal with a ball tool. Turn flowers face up and press down in the centre with the ball tool.
Glue two layers of flowers together and finish the flowers by gluing a few flower pearls in the centre of each. https://www.purplemagnolia.co.za/search?type=product&q=Flower+pearls
I used a variety of leaves cut out using Lady E Design leaves and herbs leaves dies.

Thank you for visiting. 
Happy crafting until next time.
