i'm in the process of giving the craftroom its post~Christmas tidy up...and got rather distracted by some Cath Kidson fabric scraps left over from the weekender i made my sister...
two sizzix dies later {one the Hello Kitty daisies, the other simple circles}...and i had this pretty brooch!
i simply cut 6 daisies the same size {gotta love that sizzix dies can cut through 6 layers of canvas in one go!!}, gathered 5 into little petal bundles and stitched them to the back of an open daisy...layered on a felt circle and a button...
...on the reverse side...i simply stitched a brooch back through the lower layers of petals and a felt circle, secured the edges with a little glue...and hey presto!
one of my favourite things about this brooch is that you can make it fairly flat {eg if you wanted it on a LO} or you can properly fluff up the petals so it is really dimensional {eg to wear on a cardi or as a bag embellishment, or in your hair}
i'd better get back to the tidying now...but i promised papercrafts...and i will be busy with scissors and glue tomorrow! :0)
