Last of the Crochet Flowers

 Hi Everybody,

So today I am adding in the last of the crochet flowers and next week I will move onto some other material to make some more.

This card has two flowers glued together to make a larger one and the stamen is one of the pretty ones that I have in my stash.

I have used a variety of dies to make this card, some from my own designs and others are from Spellbinders.

They are all really old dies now and I have used shades of turquoise and teal tamed with white to get the look. 

As usual it is a top folded 5x7 card as that is my favourite size to work with.

The layers have been raised with cardboard, as a cheap alternative to foam tape, and then wrapped with ribbon.

This is another pretty card but it will need a box to send it in because of the height to the flower.

Well worth it though so as not to spoil the design.

Bye for now ...

Hugs xx

Crochet Daisies

Hi Everybody,

Here is the video I promised on how I made the daisies and they are very easy to do.

The video is not too long and I hope it helps you in the making of these flowers. 

Making Flowers - Crochet Daisies

The yarn I have used is a DK Acrylic in white and it was very inexpensive. I got three balls for the price of

two so I chose white, yellow and pink and they cost me £2.

The hook I have had for years and it is a 3.50 (Old size 9)

In the video I show you how I made the five petal flowers but if you add a couple more stiches to your magic circle you can get six petals. There are six petals to the ones on the card

 Just play around and see what you can do.

The card is a 5x7 but I have used it with the fold at the top in Landscape ... for a change !!

I have a beautiful crochet rose to show you next and that is also easy to create. Please join me for that one.

Bye for now ...

Hugs xx
