Paperbag- one of two paperflower tutorials

Good evening friends and followers,

I wanted to share anther tutorial with you. In the june edition of Ett Trykk Magazine we made an article with lots of DIY's on making paper flowers, I wanted to share one of them with you. I made this paper bag with two different kinds of home made flowers. I'll be back with the tutorial on the other one later (the big one). 

(Tutroialen er både på norsk og engelsk-se under)

To make this paperbag I used papers from Maja Design Vintage Spring Basic collection. I used 
a Martha Stewart punch for some of the edges, roses by WOC, pearls by Papirdesign, sentment stamp by Stempelglede, Cheryl Lynn DesingBranch dies, Butterfly from I am Roses, Nesting doily cirkle die by Quick Kutz/Lifestyle crafts. Lace and ribbon from my stahs. 

Paperflowers are home made.Here's a tutorial for the three little roses on my decorated paper bag. 

1. You need a few sheets of sheet music. Make sure the paper is not too thin or fragile to avoid that it dissolves when it's folded. You will alls need a circle- or oval die. I used part of an old Quick Kutz baby's rattle- die, but any die or punch is good as long as it's round'ish. You will need some pearls or glitter for the centers.  Needless to say my scissors and a glue gun or quick-drying glue is obligatory, so is walnut stain distress inks for the edges;) 

1. Du trenger et gammelt notehefte eller lignende med litt stivt papir. Pass på at papiret ikke er så tynt eller skjørt at det går i oppløsning når det brettes.  En sirkel/oval die- jeg har brukt en del av en eldre Quick Kutz babyrangle die- men du kan bruke hvilken die eller punch du ønsker. Dersom du bruker die må du ha et kutteverktøy- jeg har hentet frem den gamle Quick kutz tanga. Jeg har også brukt  distress ink til å sverte kantene med og perler eller glitter til å pynte i midten.Du trenger også saks og limpistol eller hurtigtørkende lim.

2. Start by punching or die cutting the shapes.

2. Stans ut så mange sirkler/ovaler som du vil ha lag på blomsten.

I made 7 diecuts (layers) for each flower, but you kan make them as big or small as you like. 

Distress the edges if you want (both front and back).

3. Jeg har brukt 7 lag. Distress kantene på begge sider av diecut'en.

4 Use your scissors to cut to approx. the center of the circle / oval.

4. Klipp til ca. midten av sirkelen/ovalen.

5. Use your gluegun to make a small drop of glue on one side of the cut.

5. Påfør lim.

6. Glue each circle / oval together like this. This constitutes flower petals.

6. Lim hver sirkel/oval sammen slik. Dette utgjør blomstebladene.

7. Glue the layers on top of each other, still using the glue gun.

7. Lim sammen lag på lag.

8. Attach a pearl or stickles in the center of the flower.

8.Her er den ferdige blomsten. Sett en perle eller lim på glitter i midten. 

9. Attach to project.

9. Bruk på prosjektet ditt.

Here are the finished flowers on my paper bag, hope you like my project!
