Tweezers

Grease proof Paper or Baking Paper

 

Step 12

Lay your baking paper down and work on top of that.

On the front of your folded A5  white card measure 11.5 x 5cm rectangle. Do this 1.5cm from the edge of the card

The rectangle in this example can be horizontal,  across the bottom or vertical, closest to the right side of the card.  

Using a ruler and a sharp Knife cut out the rectangle

  100_0538

 

 Step 5

Using the medium Daisy apply adhesive to 4-5 of the petals and place it partly on top of the large Daisy and partly on top of the border, inside the rectangle

 

 

 

 

Step 6

Do the same with the small Daisy, place this on top, between the other Daisy’s

 

 

 

 

 

   

Step 7

Add a self adhesive rhinestone to the middle of each Daisy

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can use all the same sized rhinestones or you can use smaller ones for the smaller Daisy’s

Step 8

Repeat all the above steps for  the opposite corner. It would look great for a  photo. You could also do all 4 corners  

 

 

Filled with Daisy's

 

 

or  you can keep going and fill in the entire area with Daisys using the same technique. Make sure all Daisy’s overlap slightly
