Tattered Rose Tutorial
By: Sarinda Jones
What you will need:
- Patterned Paper: What’s Up?
- Basic Grey Abroad side B (Red) Flower
- Light as a Feather Side B (Teal) Leaves
- Flower Punches or Cutting Machine.
- Brad
- Spray bottle with Water
- Distress ink
- Heat Tool
Step 1:
You will need 3
consecutive petal sizes.
I used 4 sizes because
that is what the cutting file came with.
Punch or cut out
2- Large
2- Medium
2- Small
1-Extra Small
Step 2:
Stack flower with smaller
petals to largest petals onto the brad.
Save leaves for later.
Step 3:
Once together spritz the
layers with Water….
Just enough to soften the
first layers of paper!
You can always add more
later as you go.
Step 4:
Bring the first layer
up around the brad to form a bud, continue for all layers, making sure the
petals offset one another as you work.
The larger layers can
have the tips folded back a bit to create an opening bud...
Once done it should look
something like this….
Step 5:
I cupped the flower in my
palm and scrunched it
around and around to form
it a bit more.
Step 6:
Dab the flower petal
edges into the Distress ink.
Spritz with water to
allow ink to bleed and run….
Step 7:
Gently open the petals;
open out the largest layer to form nice open petals and allow the others to
fall as they wish, we can open them a little more later...
Step 8:
Once dried you can arrange the petals more if needed.
Use heat gun to dry. Keep
the heat gun moving so you don't burn the petals. Alternatively sit the
flower let it dry naturally.
Step 9:
Do the same process with
leaves….
Add them below flower and
fasten with brad.
