Daisy instructions


Here are my instructions to make a daisy using the sizzix flower, daisies #2 die available from Stampin' Up!

Firstly cut two white large, two medium daisy shapes and two small daisies in the colour of your choice, I have used rose red.


Next join the two large white daisies together, off setting the petals, do the same with the white medium daisy shapes and the small daisy shapes, like this.


                       Next stick your medium white daisies on to your large white daisies, like this.


 Cut two 1/2 inch circles using the same colour as the small daisies, and stick one under your small daisies. (This gives you somewhere to attach your foam pads to later)                                                                               Using an embossing tool, shape the second circle, as shown here.


Next layer two foam pads on top of each other and use them to stick the domed circle on to your coloured daisy centre. I have used a bone folder to shape the daisy petals, the white petals backwards and the small coloured petals forward.


                                           Glue your daisy centre on to the medium white daisy.
                                         (If you want, you can add glitter to the centre or a glaze)
                                                       And there your daisy is complete!


You can make daisies in any colour you like, here I have, top left melon mambo, top right rose red and bottom row pink pirouette.

I hope you like these daisies, I think they are gorgeous and easy to make. Thank you for visiting Dawn x
