GREASEPROOF FLOWER

Hi Folks,

I was cutting out some diecuts yesterday and have been led to believe that wax paper helps in getting intricate dies to come away from the paper/card etc however, in the U.K wax paper is very hard to come by, so i used what i have been told is the next best thing, 'greaseproof paper' so i asked my lovely John to get me some from the shop.
I used it and it does help, but looking at it, its quite flimsy, just a bit tougher than tissue paper, so i thought i wonder how this would look made into a flower so i got started, cutting, layering, glueing, and scrunching and this is what i came up with, i kinda like it, i think its cute, what d'you think?  Hugs Vick xxx
P.S Have a good, happy and peaceful Sunday!!!

  1. Now that I like Vick, I have a wad of wax paper that I had in a big craft stash I bought and wasn't sure what to do with so you have given me 2 great ideas to try with it TY xx

  3. Great job Vick. You can also stamp the rough side and change the effect if you lightly mist it with water and scrunch carefully. Always great to make your own flowers eh? Hugs, Buttons x
