Purple and White Flowers



Today I wanted to create a purple and white bouquet.  For this arrangement  I used a large variety of Susan's Garden Notes die sets:  Shasta Daisy, Fever Few, Lilac, Bouquet & Stems, Baby's Breath, Leafy Berry Branch, Wheat Sheath, and Potted.  Some of the die cuts were used for things other than the original purpose.


Here is a picture of the die cut pieces for this arrangement.  


The Bouquet & Stems die cut was cut in half so I could spread out the Shasta Daisies.  The Wheat Sheaths were cut down each of the long wheat ends because I wanted them to represent long grass, which I used as a filler.  The Leafy Berry Branch was used as stems for purple flowers, which I glued on the small lilac flowers.  These two branches were cut apart before adding to the arrangement.  



The Garden Notes Fever Few die set was used to create small purple flowers.  Pollen was added to the center of these flowers, then attached to a branch of the Baby's Breath (the Baby's Breath Branch was cut apart).  The Fever Few leaves were attach to these stems.

This is a 5x7 inch card.  The Clay Pot was attached to the bottom of the card.  All the die cut flowers and fillers were attached.  When creating the arrangement, some of the flowers were overlapped to create depth.  

Have you tried to use some of the Garden Note die sets to create something different in your flower arrangements?
