Flower Embellishments

One of the most popular of embellishments on scrapbook pages is flowers. For those of you who remember the 1960’s when flower stickers were all the rage, it seems like what is old is new again.
What is cool about flowers is that it never goes out of fashion and can be sized to fit any page or binder cover. They come in all sorts of colors, made of many different materials, and works with many different themes.
Here are some ideas using flower embellishments:
- Layer flower designs on top of each other across the page
- Use flowers to border a photograph
- Use flowers to bullet point your journaling
- Fashion your own flowers using looped ribbon for the petals
- Crochet your own flowers in minutes using a template from a Crochet Pattern
- Fold fabric flowers in half and attach behind a photo or patterned paper
- Use pictures of flowers from the Internet to make a collage
- Add a 3D feel to silk or fabric flowers by stamping them with ink and then sprinkling with embossing powder
