Punched Oval Rose Bud Tutorial

I love these oval punches from Stampin up they have so many uses. Heres a tutorial of a rose bud ive made from the small oval punch.I showed my Monday card ladies how to make this one..i hope you enjoy....Oh by the way while your here hop over and see my new recipe....Savory Seed Sprinkle.....mmmm they are very yummy.

These are the punches i used for this project....you will need to punch:
3 small ovals
2 leaves
1 small daisy
1 mini spiral
and a strip for the stem.

Cut one of the ovals in half length ways. and cut the small daisy in half. Ink all the edges in black.

Using an embossing tool and pad draw a line down the center of the leaves and make a fold.
I also used deckle scissors to give that rough leaf edge. Use the larger embossing tool to shape one of the ovals working on the back.

Working on the front of the 2 half ovals give these some shape with the large emboss tool.
Attach some foam tape to the back of the shaped oval.

Stick this onto the second oval allowing the top of the base oval to peep over the top. Glue on the mini spiral using a toothpick and a very small amount of glue.

Keeping the straight edge of the half ovals facing outwards glue these onto the full oval.
Glue on the half daisy to the base of your flower.

Glue the leaves to the stalk....you can see the wet glue here....remember to use a toothpick and very small amounts of glue to keep everything tidy. This is the finished rose bud ready to add to you cards. enjoy.....Valita


and a last thought

God has given each of you special abilities;
Be sure to use them to help each other,
Passing on to others God's many
kinds of blessings.

  13. You are brilliant! You created a simple tutorial that looks so much more complex to do. And, using the deckle scissors to create the texture on the leaves...excellent! Really nice job!
