DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012
This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
Cut a flower shape from the Sunshine gingham patterned paper to measure about 28cm across. Ink the edges and draw a doodled line all around the inner edge. Glue centrally on Cappuccino cardstock.
2
Ink the flourishes of chipboard and aloe to try for a few moments before gluing in place as shown.
3
Staple a few lengths of raffia across the page.
4
Apply a pair of photos centrally, tucking the edges underneath the flourishes.
5
Add a title using cardstock stickers, layering some of the words onto cardstock.
6
Make the paper flower (see below) and add to the bottom left corner of the page.
7
Add a felt butterfly diecut to complete.
8
To make the orange flower – cut 4 squares from sunshine patterned paper (use the single sided paper as this is thinner) measuring 7cm x 7cm. Concertina into 8 equal sections. Fold in half and repeat for 4 pieces – add a paper circle and a brad on top.
9
To make the green flower – Cut a strip of scrap yellow card to measure 1cm wide by 25cm long. Use a quilling tool to roll up.
10
Cut verde single sided paper to measure 3.5cm by 25cm. Cut into the strip at narrow intervals so you have a fringe of 2.5cm wide. Wrap the strip around the yellow flower centre to make a giant quilled flower.
11
To make the yellow flower – Layer up a large yellow bloom, a smaller white and a circle of Verde patterned paper . Ink each layer and secure together with a fancy brad.
