Daisy Die For The Big Shot

Hello Creative Friends,
Hope you all had a good weekend.  Just had to share with you some of the daisies I’ve been making using the Flower Daisies #2 Die for the Big Shot. 

I’ve found that you can make the flowers made from this die look all different ways.  It depends whether you leave them flat or curl the edges, what material you use to make them, how many layers you use, and what size and  type of center you put on them.

On the ones in the photo, I used two of the largest size layers and one of the middle size layers.   The die actually has three size of daisy layers.

Papercraft DaisiesI textured some Chocolate Brown Card stock with the dotted Texturz Plates and made the flower centers out of the 1 1/4 Circle Punch.    The edges are sponged with Creamy Caramel Ink and they are put on dowel rods covered with floral tape.

I wanted them to look more like Gerber daisies, but they turned out more of a cross between a regular daisy, a Gerber, and a Lazy Susan.  Hey!  They are a hybrid.  Who knew!:) 

Tomorrow marks my 8th Anniversary on the web for my Creative Ladies Ministry.  Be sure to stop back in tomorrow and I’ll have some anniversary cake waiting for you:)

Have a creative day,
Julia

  • WOWZA! These are simply gorgeous! I just ordered this die and it is due to arrive on Thursday…woohoo! I will have to try making one of these darling flowers. Thanks for sharing!

  • Pam says:

    Lovely! How did you attach the flowers to the dowels?
    Thank you,
    Pam

  • Julia says:

    Pam, I used two 1 1/4 circles that I punched out, folded them in half, and then I used Sticky Strip to adhere half of each circle to the underside of the flower and half to the dowel rod. Hope that makes sense. I have a photo of it that I’ll upload later today when I do some computer work. Will leave a note here when I do.

  • where can I see samples of all of your flowers. I am a flower person and can’t have enough ideas.
