Hi all.
Well Easter is quickly aproaching. About a week to go!
One song has been stuck in my head. It is called "Girl in Stilletos" by Anna Mac
Don't know the song? click here to listen and read the lyrics.... so much an NZ song.
I kept thinking I need to make myself some Stilletoes!
These are for the ladies I am close to in church.
I couldn't stop!
The template to the shoes is found here....The daily digital (template link is at the end of the post)
Thanks to the help of Fiskars tools: scissors and embossing stylus
And the help of Bella! Sugar Candy cardstocks and Ruby Rock-it Nostalgia chipboard embellishments/stickers.
See the Easter Lilly in the shoe?
Well here is a Tutorial on how to make yours!
1. Cut out two petal formations in white cardstock per flower.
here is the photo of the template (draw up your own any size you want)
2. Spray each petal formation with water and scrunch up into balls then flatten a bit and dry with heat gun.
3. Colour the middles of each petal formation with green ink.
4. to make the stemans of the flower take the white ones you buy at any Spotlight store in the floral/wedding section and ink up the stems in green then put flowersoft on the tips. Let dry
5. Put holes in the middle of the petal formations
4. Put three stamens in the middle of two petal formations.
5. put glue near the stamens and pinch the petals up and let dry.
6. Cut half inch strips of green cardtock about 6" long
7. Fold the green strips in half and put double sided tape down the middle. Attach to flower head with the bottom of the flower attached where the stamens stick out.
8. Curl the white petals back a little. And you are finished.... another addicting thing. Making flowers!
Thanks for dropping by. Have a great Easter!
