Everything's Coming Up Roses...(or Flowers!)

It seems that all the rage these days when it comes to scrapping is flowers, flowers, flowers and since this next month's kit is going to have little bits of florals thrown in and a feminine flair I thought it might be fun to share some of my favorite flower tutorials and techniques with you!

Martha Stewart of course has some beautiful templates and tips to share when it comes to crafting and making flowers is no exception! Check out this beautiful Crepe Paper Rose!



Tutorial and template can be found here.

I found some beautiful Poppies made from crepe paper as well on A Very Chocolate Life's site.



These recycled paper flowers are fun and would be fun on mini books or banners don't you think?



And speaking of recycling...check out these stunning flowers made from recycled egg cartons!



And one of my favorite sites, Zakka Life has this fun tutorial for creating some tiny delicate tissue paper flowers.



Hope this inspires you to perhaps create some of your own floral embellishments!
