Rose Posy Picture so 'Chic'.
Today's post is going to be about using some of those beautiful flowers that we sell at Craft Fairy in a picture frame. I've made this because so many of my customers say that our flowers are too beautiful to use and they keep them in a draw to look at from time to time. Well we cant have that can we. So this is how to get them out of the draw and use them to good effect.
Cut the paper so that it fits on the backing board. Fix it in the frame.
For the posy, I used a selection of flowers.
Large curly roses in pink.
Vintage blue roses in blue
Shape your roses so that they form round shape as seen in the image. Then apply foam pads to the back of the posy.
Stick down onto the backing paper.
To make the vase cut a vase shape from some decorative card. I used some non shed glitter card but you could use any toning card that you have.
Tie a knot in a piece of 16mm ribbon. I used french blue, and trim to make it look like a bow. Apply tape to each side of the ribbon and tape to the back of the vase shape.
Now attach this to the picture with more foam pads and your picture is complete.
Do you like this frame? Does it look expensive? Well, it actually cost me 99p and it came from the shop of the same name. You probably have a local one yourself so get on over and have a look at what they have in stock. There was no glass. What did I expect for 99p? Better for the purposes of making this picture.
The paper is from Making Memories and was part of my stash that I'd been keeping for a long time as it was too pretty to waste.
