This post comes with it's own little warning...
** read on at your own scrapping risk**
If you're like me, and you love making your own paper flowers..... then I have something for you :)
I justified this little purchase to myself as something I REALLY NEEDED....as it would help me save scrapping time...lol...had nothing to do with want.... what-so-ever...
Cuttlebug have released these gorgeous new quilling plates to make these scrumptious flowers...
I've used the daisy quilling plate...
but there's also the carnation
and the chrysanthemum
At Lime Tart , Philipa has just restocked the three flower types and the cuttlebug base plates. The set comes with the cutting plates, a leaf plate, some florists wire and a quilling tool. I used the quilling tool to create the little swirly flowers, which made that job so much easier, as I used to roll these by hand :)
Here is a link to a demonstration.....you'll be amazed when you see how easy these flowers are...
