Rolled Flowers Part 3!
You will notice that this new set of flowers has a different leaf as well as a different background with the images. These will fit on the other leaf set and vice versa. You can find my first 51 flowers in the two posts below:
These files comes with the rolled flower design shown in the image as well as the leaf set. The designs can be sized to fit your needs and are compatible with the 8x12 and 12x12 mats. These are perfect for adding to cards, layouts, bags, boxes, creating wreaths, and more! The leaf is sized at approximately 4-1/2" x 1-1/4" to give you an idea of the size. Be sure to check out the entire collection!
Tips
For my flowers I am using a variety of cardstock weights, mostly 60# and 80# and I cut them at a slower speed (I am using 5 on my machine but if they aren't cutting well, slow it down more) as some of them are detailed in shape. Before you "unload" your mat, lift up the paper a bit to see if it has cut well...if not, push paper back down and cut again! Hot glue is my preference for flowers, it just seems to hold the best over time. I use a wide slot quilling tool, the slot is a bit wider than most which I think is easier to work with. Before I found this tool, I used tweezers to start my rolls and finished with my fingers - I often still use my fingers to roll after I get them started. Don't be afraid to roll tight and you can let loose before adhering together to achieve the look you want. And...make sure you curve the leaf pieces some too, I use a skewer to do mine but a pencil works great too!
Here is the tutorial:
(all flowers follow same tutorial)
1. Cut out your form and gather your pieces.
2. Using a quilling tool or tweezers (or fingers!), begin rolling the form from the outer edge as shown in the image.
3. Continue to roll until you reach the center. Add a strong adhesive (like hot glue or a quick drying liquid) and press the round center to the middle.
4. This image is just showing the bottom of the flower. Cut and adhere your leaf pieces together then add adhesive to the center of the leaf and press the flower to the center to attach!
