FOAMIRAN FLOWERS with Carol

Morning everyone and welcome to my

October Tutorial 

FOAMIRAN FLOWERS

Today I have a tutorial for you on how to make  foamiran flowers, similar to the ones on my layout for the 

October OFF THE RAILS Mood Board.

HERES HOW

STEP 1

Gather your supplies, you will need-

a sheet of white foamiran, flower dies, inks to colour, stamens, piece of thin wire, barbeque stick, iron or heat gun, pokey tool, hot glue gun, foam pad, ball tool.

Step 2

Cut out an assorted selection of flowers with your die

Step 3

Ink your flowers including one for the leaves

Step 4

Using an iron or heat gun tool, take the wooden stick and heat up the flower on medium heat, no steam, for a few seconds

Step 5

When warm, roll flowers between your fingers

Step 6

Roll and pinch as you go

Step 7

When cool, unwrap and roll out the flowers on the foam with your ball tool and stretch gently with your fingers

Step 8

Step 9

Now take a few stamens, fold in half, attach wire

Step 10

Start to thread the flower head onto the wire, this is where you need your pokey tool if your flowers do not have the holes in them 

Step 11

Add small dabs of glue between the layers

Step 12

Cut off the excess string from the stamens, and there you have one pretty flower.
