Ribbon flower tutorial

Hi and welcome to my ribbon flower tutorial. I am sure many of you have seen it before but I am also sure there will some of you that havent tried this before.
I will show you step by step how to make the pink and white dotted ribbon flower in the left lower corner of my layout that also is a part of one of the September kits:


************
Now we will make a flower .
I recommend that you try to make one flower first before adding the glue dots for practice. This also let you see if your paper circle has the right size of the base circle.

Cut out a circle from a piece of paper.

************
************

Staple one end of the ribbon to the centre of the circle and add some glue dots or similar to the rest of the circle. Be careful so the ribbon does not stick.

************


************

Holding the circle with the attached ribbon in one hand, twist the ribbon until it is all twisted.

************


************
Start from the centre mounting the twisted ribbon in circles.

************




************
Mount the edge of the ribbon on the back side of the circle (with a glue dot) after cutting off any parts of the circle sticking outside of the ribbon.

************
************
Add the flower to the page.

Have fun creating!

  8. The hold is one of numerous accessories that can be utilized on the
    Canon 5D. The Olympus E-3 contains a two and a half inch LCD screen, which is just a little
    bit smaller than its competitors, however, this didn't bother me. No matter how much you pay for something, it's going to have something about it that you either don't like or don't require.

  9. Everything seems to have a slightly bluish tinge to it, most noticeable
    when you're looking at light grey areas. The introduction of the samsung chromebook into the marketplace signifies a shift away from the traditional concept of a laptop where the devices itself stores all of the information that you require. Many years in the past the user had to write their programming code manually, using some cryptic codes.

  10. They (Sony) purchased Crackle for a reputed $65 million in 2006, just prior
    to Google's $1. The built-in web browser of Google TV separates it from media streaming devices like Apple TV. In this day and age it is impossible to stay on top of all the latest pieces of technology.

  13. To make the things easier for you, it supports JPEG format and is compatible with
    Mac and MS Window. There is a host of in-camera editing options such as red-eye reduction, cropping, color balance, straightening,
    fish-eye effect, etc. The zoom manage is actually a rotary
    bezel around the shutter button, and it really
    is a bit jerky, but with 12 actions between minimal and optimum it's able of relatively precise framing.

  14. This design is spectacular! You obviously know how to keep a reader entertained.

    Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved
    to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Excellent job.
    I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that,
    how you presented it. Too cool!

  15. The manufacturer claims if this can improve text entry speeds by 30%.
    1 feels excellent within the hand not like the Motorola Xoom and the Acer Iconia A500.

    With this Samsung Galaxy Tab media
    dock You can convenient sync the tablet with a computer
    and charge it at the same time.
