Story of a "Giant Flower" :P

Hola!
Today I am sharing something new with you, as in not something I made previously but something I made yesterday. Well, I precisely started with creating simple spiral roses. Basically I made them for a special friend :)




But I found them too bland, so I thought of adding some sparkle to it...I tried it for the very FIRST time...and was quite scared of the results, but its fun to experiment and then marveling at ur mistakes and make more experiments....and getting something you finally like...:P
This is what it looks like after adding a bit of *Sparkle*..I am happy with the result as they are quite noticeable from the simple flowers at the same time there is a bit of an extra dimension which seems to be added on to them with use of this glitter.....




But....... But....... But..... this post is about some "Giant" flowers and they dont look much giantish....so, i'll show you something which I made and used these spiral flowers on it...
So I used something which have been lying in my cupboard for almost 6 months now and havent got a chance to be used...
And that is my Scalloped heart punch...
I punched out some quick hearts, of the same paper, embossed the edges and assembled them as a flower... Finally I just stuck a spiral rose to make a center and this is the result...




This flower is made in 2 layers with third as the center...






this is quite big, I tried picturing it by taking it in my palm, but it didnt fit really...:P


I am yet to use this Giant flower in a project as I was too eager to show you all...:P But as soon as I come up with something, I'll surely share it as well...so far it can be used on cards, scrapbooks, as a stand alone embellishment or room decor as well...I am sure the possibilities are endless....
And I am sure all you lovely crafters must have figured out a way already to use this...Please do share with me in your valuable comments, the possible uses of this flower...I would love to and in fact will try to try all of them.....
Do let me know if you like it...I will be back soon with more posts and pictures...:))

  2. Priyanka such a lovely shade you have used for the spiral rose and the dark glitter looks so beautiful --so far I have used only gold and silver glitter on my flowers- you have given me inspiration to use other colors too and your big flower is awesome. Would look just perfect on a gift box-- will make it very special indeed!

    Cheers from Bangalore
