Hello crafters,
I will be sharing a tutorial post on how to make a flower from the Cheery Lynn sweet Williams die. The beauty of this
versatile die is that one can make 3-4 types of flowers by altering the
techniques,here are few pictures-
After some trial-and-error...this is the way I made the flower, I think it almost resembles a marigold bloom The pictures are posted below with the step-by-step instructions...
You will need:
Sweet Williams die
Tweezers
TUTORIAL
Once done turn the flower over and emboss/cup the flower center as shown in the picture. This will form the base layer
Now layer and stick them on the previous die cut in a way that the 1st layer petals overlap the base

TUTORIAL
Step 1
This flower type
requires 3 large , 2 2nd largest and 3 small die cuts-
Lightly mist the all
the flower shapes with the Mist-ries ink spray with the desired color leaving
some white spaces on few of the petals; I have used Citrine Orange here.
Step 2
With the misted side
facing the mat emboss each of petals of the largest shape with the molding
tool.
Once done turn the flower over and emboss/cup the flower center as shown in the picture. This will form the base layer
Step

Likewise take another shape with the misted side facing up and cup each of the petals with the molding tool. This will form the 2nd layer

Step 4
Take the medium size die cuts and place the tweezers in the centre of each petal and apply firm pressure so that the side edges curl upwards.

Clasp the petal
edges with the tweezer and tightly press to form a crease.
Step 5
Layer 3 shapes with the petals overlapping each other.

Step 6
Now finally take the smallest shape and cup the petals as done for the first layer.
Now finally take the smallest shape and cup the petals as done for the first layer.
Follow the technique
as in step 2 for the last 3 smallest shapes.
Place glue into centre of larger petal base flowers add the
corresponding layers and press firmly with the end of the molding tool into
middle.
This is how the flower will look, you can also add pollens in the center of the flower . Die Cuts and more has a beautiful collection of pollens at reasonable prices.
