A while back I made little paper baubles for a garland.

This technique works on that same idea.

Image
First, punch or die cut a symmetrical shape. (flower, heart, circle, etc)
Next, fold each shape in half (a scoring tool helps get your folds nice and crisp).
Then, simply glue each punch to the next lining up along the folds. I used 4 punchies, but experiment with more to get a fuller look.
Adhere the back flaps to your project and your done!

The best part: the baubles fold flat for card shipping. These make great scrapbook accents for framed layouts, too.

And a close up:

Link your project up here by May 29th for an entry to the prize!

Create a flower using this technique. Use it on a project -- may be a layout, card, tag, ATC or altered item. Post it here so we can see! Projects due May 29th at midnight.
