One In A Million

I was playing around tonight with my newest petite scalloped Nestabilities and came up with a flower using the smallest oval as the petals.  After playing around with it for a while and adding layers, I finished off the flower and then didn’t quite know what I wanted to do with it.  It’s rather large, but I decided to put it on a card.

It has quite a bit of height, but depending on what I use it for, it can be flattened somewhat.  I took several pictures to show how easy it was to put together.

Cut and emboss smallest oval.  With the die still in place, stamp with background stamp.   Repeat for all 5 petals.

Score each petal 1/2″ from left side and fold.

Sponge or smudge the edge of each petal with Distress Ink.

Use a dowel or a pair of scissors to curl each petal.  Use glue dots to attach each petal to a 1¼” or 1½” base circle with the folded hinge in the center.

Cut five more petals out of vellum.  Score 1/2″ from left edge.  Sponge lightly with distress ink.  Curl each petal then attach to bottom of circle base with glue dots.
