ReplyDeleteHi Monique...
ReplyDeleteThis was made such a long time ago... a blast from the past! What I can remember was the shading was done using soft pastels with the layers built up slowly with a small sponge... starting with the lightest colour finishing with the darker center... the petals were a simple leaf shape scored down the middle and curled the leaves with a bone folder.. glued together each overlapping causing it to become more dimensional.. I did use reasonably heavy card so they kept their shape well.. hope this helps... I do remember they were fun to do...
Deb :)
