Technique Hop - "Layered Flowers"

 

For this blog hop we will be spotlighting CTMH products used to create layered flowers in our artwork; including Thin Cuts, CTMH-related Cricut cuts, stamp images, or even with masking! The possibilities are limitless! It will be fun to see what everyone creates! 

This month we have 8 CTMH Makers sharing their creations using a variety of CTMH products to create Layered Flowers. To see what everyone has created is simple to do; just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one! 

If you came here from Lauren Moore you are on the right path!  The blog hop is a complete circle, so you can start here and work your way all around.  If you get lost along the way, you'll find the complete list of participating Makers on Melissa's Blog HERE.   Here we go!

I love layered flowers and clusters of flowers. One of my favorites is creating flowers from patterned paper or card stock by wetting it (just a spritz), crumpling it tight into a wad, then opening it and adjusting the creases to look like petals, let it dry, ink the edges and glue a dab of glue in the center of the layers. You can also create a 3-D look by taking a sticker, cut out flower from the paper or a stamped flower and curling the petals with a bone folder layering it with a smaller version.
