Time for the Papertrey Ink blog hop; this month we were asked to use embroidery floss. I don’t have much time to post this so I’ll add lots more details when I get home.
I adhered a foam circle on a piece of cardstock with the backing still on and placed a circle Nestability over it as a guide. Then I looped my floss using the circle as a guide to how long the petals should be; I used three different sizes for these flowers. When the petals were done, I placed a red line tape circle over it to secure the floss and adhere the button.
Sorry the photo sucks. I’ll replace it when I get home from dinner!
Enjoy, Rebecca
