Envy Flower

You just never know where you'll get inspiration! I was watching Trading Spaces this morning and one of the designers was working on a little girl's room. This particular team made some really cool flowers to hang from the ceiling and the following tutorial is my take on her idea.


Supplies

  • 5 #10 Envelopes
  • Jumbo Wheel of Choice
  • Jumbo Wheel Handle
  • Stampin’ Up! Ink Pad (or cartridge)
  • Dotto Adhesive
  • Oval Punch
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Craft and Rubber Scissors


Instructions


  1. Seal all envelopes.
  2. Wheel both sides of all envelopes
  3. Cut all envelopes in half – at the 4¾ inch mark.
  4. Punch the two corners on the OPEN edge of the envelope using the Oval Punch
  5. Trim off excess of corner with paper snips.
  6. Run adhesive down the middle and across the bottom of each envelope, stacking one on top of another until all are adhered in a pile.
  7. Run adhesive on the top envelope just as you did the previous nine.
  8. Attach the top envelope to the bottom envelope to make a complete flower.

I would absolutely LOVE to see any examples you make with this! Email me at stampinmerr@email.com!!
