A Fast and Easy Tissue Paper Flower, A Sweet New Layout



Tissue Paper Circle Flower

I have a sweet little flower to share with you today. I was so excited to see some tissue paper from Canvas Corp in The Paper Bakery January Scrapbook Kit since I had just been thinking of these cute little flowers and hoping to create a few.

step one
cut a handful of tissue paper circles
mine were roughly cut with a 1 3/8 inch circle punch
and there are eight in my flower total





step two
simply gather together your circles and staple the center of the circles together




step three
start squishing the petals towards the center of the flower, one at a time


step four
once all the petals are squished, fluff and shape until you like how the flower looks




Now you have a sweet flower for a "Sweet" page


and that girl is so very sweet, just like this page. 
she is thoughtful and full of faith.
she always knows what I need to hear 
and is not one to hold back compliments or love.
and she is honest.
and sincere.
she is exactly who God created her to be.

and me,
I am just blessed to be that sweet girl's mama.


supply list:
Tattered Angels Chalkboard Glimmer Mist, Polka Dot Pink
machine stitching, thread
