With new stock of miniature flowers just arrived I am reminded how much I enjoy using them in both scrapbook layouts and greeting cards. This particular shipment has a huge array of colours, some with tinted edges and some with micro bead petal tips.
My fav techniques with these tiny flowers:
- Mix these little babies up with the larger sized flowers. I especially like how they look with the new Kaiser florals.
- Mix the colours up. Same colour family but different colours (eg: pinks and reds together) is especially effective.
- Take advantage on the long stems. Create a trailing look with the long elegant stem, twist them around each other to create a vine or wreath.
- Hand colour them. Touch Copic Markers or another ink pen to the edges of the petal for a custom colour.
- Dot tiny rhinestones on their tips. Sparkly! Add Kindyglitz for double glittery action.
I store my miniature flowers in a preserving jar on my art desk. Even when I'm not using them they are just so pretty.
Check out the lovely range of colours and styles in store now.
