Beautiful Punch Board Flowers

Hello, everyone!  I just have time for a quick post today as I overslept, a rarity, and I'm meeting a friend at the theater to watch "Into the Storm."  I'll let you know if it was worth the time.  I have a free pass so I won't be too disappointed is I don't care for it.

Anyway, while watching movies at home, I didn't want to just sit and watch so I pulled out my flower punch board and some patterned papers and went to work.  I'm making new bouquets for the ladies who work in the office at my apartment complex.  The punch board makes it very easy and quick to make up the flowers.  You can make flowers from XXS (3" diameter) to XXL (22-1/2" diameter).  The sizes I used for my three layered flowers XXS (3" diameter), XS (4" diameter) and S (5" diameter).  I'm thinking the XXL will make a nice size to put on my door.  Will have to give that a try.

The only thing I need to add to the flower stems are the leaves.  You can even make those with the flower punch board.  I'm thinking some Christmas flowers are going to decorate my home this year.  I can't wait to get some of the new Christmas Designer Series Paper in my next Stampin' Up!® order!



Thanks for stopping in at the Coffee Pot Stamping Cafe,

Marsha

    1. The flowers were made using the Flower Punch Board by We R Memory Keepers so I really don't have any instructions other than was is printed on the board for the size. You can make 3" diameter flowers up to 22.5" diameter flowers. I've not tried the largest size but that is definitely on my list. I think it would look great hanging on my front door.
