i love to create- day 17- paper blossoms punches



Every day of the year is a great day to get crafty! In February we are celebrating some of our favorite scrapbooking and stamping products because they make creating more fun, easier, and inspire us to do more. We want to share the love with you, so each day in February (it's a leap year so there are 29 days!) we are picking one of our favorite products to share with you!

Check back each day to see the new product, and learn more about it.

We craft ourselves, and actually use and recommend these items, because we Love to Create!

Today's pick: Paper Blossom Punches by McGill

Using different punches you can create amazing dimensional, realistic looking flowers out of paper! Look at this close up for a garden rose.


The techniques for creating these flowers involve 3 basic sets.
1.) punching
2.) shaping (using stylus and a foam pad, and sometimes tweezers)
3.) assembling (gluing the shaped petals together to create the flower)
Watch this video on how to make a rose to see the process and understand more.




we have all the punches you need to make these 16 amazing flowers.
You can find a project sheet for any and all of these 16 punches here
