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!

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.

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.

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.
