Makin's Clay® Flowers



Hi, today I was playing with my Makin's Clay®!

I want to share with you what I did! This was fun, I had no plans! I just wanted to make some free hand flowers, no cutters or molds.

Let's get to it........


I mixed some White and Pink together


 Once blended together, I rolled it out to a large circle and let dry overnight!


Now just grab some scissors and cut three circles. They do not need to be perfect circles as you can see!

I took my Prisma colored pencils and started to color the circles.


Done coloring.

Add a brad to the smallest flower and then glue them together! I love these!!!!

What do you think? Great embellishments!!!!



I took it another step further!

I cut out the petals and colored it and shaded it more with colored pencils! OMG! LOVE!



A new way to make flower embellishments! I really like these!

Tell me what you think!!!

Sizzix Bigz Die - Flower, Heart & Soul

Sizzix Bigz Die - Flower, Heart & Soul

Item #661108

These flowers are so easy to put together and look stunning!
On my Heart & Soul flower I added crackle medium over the top and once dried I added clear glaze to make them shiny. 
This flower is a beauty!

I paired it with Eileen's re-release of the Candy drawer! I just stacked them to make a cute little dresser that could be used in a baby girls room. The paper is Canvas Corp paper. Baby Girl line.

Both projects today were made for Samples at CHA. I have now figured out  that I should take step out photos even for samples!

I love this card made with Graphic 45 papers, so fun!!!
I layers many of the papers and did some stitching on some of the layers. Added the beautiful Pansy flower and some twine and one of Eileen's NEW Leaves!

Both of my projects I used the Pansy Flower! One was rolled forward and on the other I rolled it back! But each flower is the same, just a bit different look! Which do you like?

On my Flower Pocket I used the Pansy Flower and another one of the leaves from the leave die!

This Flower pocket is a fun one.....I can picture crayons and coloring tablet. Great for a gift holder! Also it would be cute to add some cookies inside wrapped up oh so pretty!
