My Gramma

My grandmother.  I haven't done the journaling because I can''t think of the right thing to say.

A lot of people have been asking me how to make these flowers.  They are really easy to make.  I cut mine out on the cricut using the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge.  Depending on what size you want them - cut various sizes from 1 1/4 inch to about 2 3/4 inches.  Much bigger than that they will be very 3-d and may not fit into a book.  Next you just roll the ends of the petals under (I used a tootpick).  I used chalks on mine just to give a little dimension and variation.  Then all you do is stack them - staggering the petals - and stick them on using an adhesive or a brad - or whatever you want to use!
