Materials:
2782 - FolkArt - Extreme Glitter - Hologram or Mod Podge
5 or 6 different prints of scrapbook paper
Foam paintbrush
Wax paper
Large rhinestone (one for each flower)
Hot glue
Ribbon
Easter Basket
Steps:
1. Tear the papers into random circle shapes in various sizes. The largest should be around 3 inches and the smallest about 1.5 inches. The idea is to tear an organic shape, don't worry about creating perfect circles. You will need about 5 or 6 circles per flower.
2. Place the circles print side up on the wax paper. Coat each circle with 2 layers of extreme glitter.
3. Once dry, hot glue the circles in a graduated layer fashion. Hot glue a gem to the center of each flower.
4. Add ribbon embellishment to the Easter basket with hot glue. Hot glue the flowers across the center front of the basket.
