Yes....but sometimes easy is a good thing.
I love the tall grass around my condo in the fall when they bloom and turn golden yellow!
I have them in several places!I put together a little bundle of torn paper flower materials for Lily in Alaska. She's going to host a project with her art group...or maybe her quilting group....and wondered if I would help. Of course I would.
I assembled colorful papers...including greens for leaves and stems. Then I found a package of grassy napkins in my stash and thought they would make simple backgrounds....and they worked like a dream. Almost too easy.....but sometimes....simple and easy can be a good thing.
After separating the ply....they became quite translucent when glued on with medium and I love how the words from this recycled greeting card comes right through. I do wish I could have added a more prominent stem for the flower.
The bundle has almost all the makings for torn paper flowers....along with several inspiration tags. It's all now in the hands of the post office as it make its way from the coast of Maine....to the coast of Alaska.
I included plenty of greens for making stems and leaves the old fashioned way...but also included a couple napkins for my easy shortcut.
