Making vintage flowers from sewing pattern paper. by Lisa Kamphuis

This is fantastic way of making your own vintage flowers.....


I love all things vintage and one of my favourites is to find ways to use vintage sewing patterns. Here is a quick and easy flower that you can use in any number of ways.

1. Take your sewing pattern tissue paper and cut into 1 – 2 inch strips.

2. Twist the paper into a tight strip – the tighter the better.

3. Using a paper punch – punch some circles to adhere your tissue paper to

4. Place glue on the cardstock circle.

5. Twist the tissue aper in on itself as a circle and press onto glued dot
6. Trim to sixe when its on the glue circle
7. I hold it for a minute to ensure its adhered.
8. Spray or ink as desired


Thanks heaps Lisa
