Crepe flowers!! Do you want to make some?

Looking for a new way to make and use flowers on your layouts?  This is a great idea!
I find crepe paper so easy to work with and decided to share my crepe paper flower with you. Here we go!!!! You will need a good quality crepe paper. Some of the thinner ones can tend to tear.

First you will need to cut out 5 circles all the same size. I used a spellbinder die to cut mine out with a scallop edge to give the flowers more shape.
 
Now you want to fold all five circles in half bringing the bottom edge up to the top edge. Then you will fold again bringing the left edge over to the right edge. Now pinch the points and twist slightly.
 
Punch out a circle from cardstock (match it to your crepe paper) and adhere the sections to the circle by running a bead of glue for each section from the centre of the circle to the outside edge. Adhere 4 of your crepe paper sections. Adhere the fifth section to the centre by placing glue at the twisted point and placing at the centre of the punched circle.

This is your completed flower.
 
Now you can puff up the flower by separating the layers of each section.
Here is a layout that I did using my crepe paper flower. I did a fall layout as the colour of the crepe paper I used lends itself to the fall colours.



Here is a close up of the flower on the layout.
I hope you enjoy.
Donna.
HAPPY SCRAPPING!!!!!!
