‘Love heart flowers cards’ – This is an easy make for Mother’s Day which is only a couple of weeks away! The flowers and leaves are made by cutting out heart shapes from coloured sugar paper. I don’t cut these out with scissors ; I use paper cutters. Paper cutters or punches can be expensive but if you use them a lot they are soon worth the money spent. It would take me for ever to cut out hearts! The other shapes are squares/rectangles for the vase and thin strips of green paper for the stalks.
Handy tip – if your paper punch begins to get blunt cut a few shapes out of aluminium foil to sharpen it.
I love craft punches – makes preparation so much easier, and craft for large groups possible. My favourites are a gingerbread person shape and a dove!
Your ideas are great – thank you for the inspiration.
Totally agree about craft punches. I will have to look out for a gingerbread person! 🙂
