Not just paper flowers......3-d paper art too!

I do love making paper flowers but my start was in 3-d paper art. I was asked to contribute to a style shoot with the theme of Cinderella. I had created this lovely 3-d carriage from the wonderful svgcuts files. I added my own twist and made it completely white not just white but shimmery white. I love this paper. Don't you love this paper and how it turned out. I love the added details of the pearls to the door handle and the centres of the wheels. What a lovely style shoot this was.

Gathering ideas...

Good morning,

I thought I would share a little of how inspiration comes when creating for a custom bridal bouquet. One of my lovely clients sent me a piece of her wedding invitation envelop line. This has been her colour theme for the wedding....which is an amazing idea.

I collected my papers and matched the sample with my paper. Once the colours were layed out I was ready to start the process of  flowers. I or we ( bride ) decided the statement flower would be the Peony...which is done of my favorite flowers I have been designing. It has such wonderful details. The center is so much fun and lots of work but very much worth it. Once that flower was made I decided on 2 more flowers.

Here is a sneak peak of the process and I will keep updating as I go and the final bouquet.

So as a note...when you are looking at creating a custom look start with inspiration may it be a photo, fabric, scrapbook paper or your favorite pair of earring and pull your paper and flower will start to flow....

Hugs,
Laura
