Tag & foamiran flowers

Hi everyone :)

Finally I decided to use some of these flowers I made over the last few weeks

and a tag was something I wanted to do for a quite a while

but I didn't have time :)

I used Galeria Papieru paper 03 from As if in a dream RETRO collection

and Studio 75 paper 01 from Mr & Mrs Black collection.

I think they look amazing together :)

I stitched the edges by hand as Im not very good with sewing machine.

Need practice more lol

I love chipboards... right after foamiran ;)

This time I chose Anemone - Vintage Birdcage

and Scrapiniec - Secret Garden - Ivy.

Of course I decorated my tag with foamiran flowers... lots of them :)

I cut them out with CraftPassion dies - Flower Set 03 and Flower Set 04.

I coloured just a large flower... with a pink oil pastel. 

To made rest of them I simply used different colours of foamiran... nothing more:

white, rich yellow, mocha, flesh tone, peach, salmon and olive green for leaves.

I added stamens as well... matt stamens, glass stamens and decorative plastic stamens.

I finished my tag with natural sisal, sparkly flower centre 10mm and gems.

I hope you like it :)

Please let me know what you think about my tag in a comment section below :*

Salmon colour...

Hello crafty friends! 

I'm not sure if I've mentioned that but I looooveeee salmon colour. 

Thankfully Gallery 48 Oil Pastels Set have 2 shades of it :)

I made this flowers inspired by last Ewa Konstancja workshops.

New workshops start in just 8 days :) Can't wait!!! 

I used: 

white foamiran, 

olive green foamiran, 

silk foamiran, 

CraftPassion Peony and Rose dies and 

Gallery Oil Pastels 48 Set... 

all available at www.lovetocraftandcreate.co.uk :)

Roses extravaganza...

Good morning my crafty friends :)

I mentioned yesterday that I made some foamiran roses over the weekend.

Today I will share with you last three I've created.

This time I used peach foamiran as a base

except the smallest rose where I used light yellow and yellow. 

Again for the petals I used Craft Passion dies - Rose and Peony

and as yesterday I coloured them with Gallery oil pastels.

I used: 202, 204, 205, 216, 227 and 243.

They are fabulous! I wanted to play with them from the second I received them :)

To shape my petals I used my fingers and Flower Shaping Tool 20mm-30mm.

It is time consuming but worth every minute :)

Leaves I made using olive green foamiran as always.

All products are available in my shop Love to Craft & Create.

I hope you like my roses :) 

Thank you so much for your time. I hope you enjoyed this post.

Something new....

Hi everyone :)

Over the weekend I made a few foamiran roses and it's time to share them with you. 

Today I would like to show you one of them...

Light Pink Rose.

To make it I used white foamiran. I am not very crafty with hand cutting 

so for the petals I used Craft Passion dies - Rose and Peony.

After that the fun started :) 

Colouring the petals couldn't be much easier than using Gallery Oil Pastels.

I absolutely loved the process!!!

I used 3 colours:

210 - Purple

216 - Pink

227 - Yellow Green

After colouring the time came for shaping and the Flower Shaping Tool 20-30mm is amazing!!!

It made my work much easier but I had to use my fingers as well ;)

No pain no gain lol

To make my leaves I used olive green foamiran... my favourite.

Et voila...

All products I used are available in my shop

I hope you like my rose :)

Thank you so much for your time

Chocolate Ruffle Rose... almost ;)

Hi everyone.

I hope you have had a fantastic day so far :)

Today I'm coming to you with something new... at least for me.

Up to now, I had been trying small or medium foamiran flowers

and because I don't have much time, usually they were quite simple 

or even "lazy" as I like to call them ;)...

but this weekend I decided to try something different... 

a flower which is not only big but needs much more work as well. 

To save some time (yes, if I can I will always do lol)

 I used one of the new metal dies in my shop Love to Craft & Create

Craft Passion - Peony.

However I didn't make a peony... 

I made a rose... Chocolate Riffle Rose... 

or at least I tried to make it lol.

I cut ruffled petals (except the largest one) out using white foamiran 0.6mm

and colour them with dry soft pastels. 

And here is the result

I made leaves as well using olive green foamiran 0.6 and mould 104

but for some reason I haven't make a photo showing that. 

I need to admit I am quite proud of myself :) 

It took me a few hours to make and I burned one of my fingers in a process

but I am happy with the result. 

Please let me know what you think :)
