If you have some chipboard daisy's or flowers lying about in your scrapbook kit, here is a great way to decorate them.
Firstly decide on your color scheme and then paint the edges of the flower with the color craft paint of your choice.
You will need six contrasting patterned papers. Once your paint is dry, use your chipboard flower as a stencil and trace and cut out three flowers on different patterned papers. Chalk the edges of all your cut outs with brown ink.
Using white craft glue, stick one of the flower cut outs to the chipboard flower and allow to dry. Apply glue to the centre of the second flower and glue to the main daisy. Do the same with the third flower cut out, making sure to keep the petals loose.
Cut out two circles of thick cardboard, one the same size as the middle of your flower and the other a tad smaller. Paint the circles in the same color as you painted the edge of the die cut. Glue the large circle in the centre of the chipboard flower and the smaller one on top.
Cut each petal so that the slit reaches the circles in the centre of the die cut. Then use a chop stick to curl the two layers of petals inwards towards the centre of the flower.
Decorate the flower in any way you choose by using things like die cuts, brads, ribbons, buttons, etc. You can even stick a special photograph in the centre of your finished flower.
