Birthday Flowers


I am in a 'Swap 'n' Crop' group here in Katy.

Two of the Ladies: Patty and Paula, had birthdays lately and yesterday we met up to crop and had lunch to celebrate.

I decided to bring a little bunch of flowers with me for each, so I made these little bags of Gerberas.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PATTY AND PAULA!

It was a shame......Pattys son became ill and she spent most of the day at the hospital, missing lunch - so we will go celebrate next week.  I hope he is feeling better today Patty!

I have only been part of the group a couple of months....but they have made me feel soooo welcome - I am so grateful for each of you gals! Y'all make me laugh! Thank you for welcoming me and my Scottish ways into your group! I am learning so many new crafty things. I already luv ya!

These flowers are VERY easy to make!

Just run 2 layers of card through the Big Shot with the Flower, Daisies #2 Die and stick them all to the top of one another, starting with the largest 2, layering smaller as you go.

With mine I did the 'flocking' (click here to see how) in the centre on a 1" punched circle.

I cut up long triangles of Pear Pizzaz and curled them with my bone folder - to look like leaves.

To make the stems, I took a 1"x 8 1/2" piece of Pear Pizzaz and wound it around a bar-b-que skewer, to make a long skinny tube.

I glued another 1" punched circle onto the underside of the flower and the glued the 'stem' to the flower.

The Bag is the Fancy Favor Die - a FABULOUS easy-peasy bag!


Here is what I used!

Just love the daisies.  I'm a real flower lover and these creations appeal to me on many levels.  You and your group sound like you have a lot of fun creating.  Great job.

Dang Kirsteen.  I am surfing through your website and am being sooooo inspired!  Just realized that you had this post and wanted to say THANK YOU for the lovely flowers!  They were/are beautiful and I appreciate them so very much.  I am so glad that you found us and that you come on Wednesday's to play.  You are so creative and your work always makes me say "ooh la la"... 
hugs, patty
