Beautiful roses and winter twigs

Hi everyone.
This is BBart.
I have prepared foam roses for today, colored with pastels
and foam branches sprinkled with snow.





If you want to make such twigs for your projects, I've prepared a short photo tutorial below.

With foamiran cut off the 3.5 cm wide strips.
We cut horizontally to approx. 3.0 cm.
Glue the strip with glue and wrap around the wire.


I apply a sponge with white paint and gesso.
Sprinkle with artificial snow or brocade.


Materials:

Foamiran Purple Poppies

Good Morning Friends...

Once again, back with blooming beauties!!
Creating flowers is a fascinating process. This is a kind of meditation in which I create, enjoy, have fun and distract myself from the regular routine.  Let your lovely morning bloom with these purple beauties in your creative garden, each petal of which will give you inspiration, joy, fun, and delight to create more.

The supplies used for these purple Poppies are from my favorite, 14 CraftBar. I have used, Soft Oil Pastels, Green Floral Tape and floral wires. 
















Thanks for stopping by...
((Hugs))
