Hi, my name is Tammy and I will be your mod for the Digital Scrapbooking section. I don't know much about paper scrapping as I have never done it, but I can try to help as best as I can.. I have been friends with Jules for a few years now, we meet on Myspace, and when she asked me to help her mod one of the sections, I just couldn't say no.. As many of you know she is a total doll! I have been digiscrapping for just over a year now, and I am totally addicted, you can visit my link below to see some of my work.. I am a Stay at Home Mom of three beautiful but rambunctious boys. I am also totally addicted to reading and True Blood. We currently reside in West Tennessee, but I am originally from Albany NY and boy do I sometimes miss home.. I am also taking digital scrapbooking lessons for PhotoShop, as I normally don't scrap in that program. Once I have completed these lessons I will be offering classes on the forums for those of you who would like to learn how to scrap digitally. Can't wait to scrap with everyone!

Today I have a really quick and easy ribbon flower tutorial to share with you fabulous ladies! These flowers are a wonderful way to add a custom personal touch to your pages especially if you can't find that right embellie! And hey - you can use up your scrap ribbon too!! First what we need:* Scrap Ribbons - on average my lengths were about 10-12 inches * Scissors * Thread * Needle Then we simply thread our needle, knotting the end of the thread, and start running a quick basting stitch close the edge of one side of the ribbon! Once you get the entire length of the ribbon stitched up gently pull the thread until you get a slight gather in the ribbon. Then begin to wrap your ribbon until you get something that YOU think looks good. This may require you to pull on the thread some more to gather it more or to let out what you have already gathered a bit, it's all about making it look like what you want! When you get your ribbon flower to look how you want then take your needle and thread and seal the deal :-) I like to just make a few stitches through the middle of the flower to tack it all together just to make sure that it will remain solid! And now you have the basic of your ribbon flower! All you have left to do is embellish the center and you are good to go! You can embellish it with whatever your heart desires, which is the fun part!! I absolutely can not wait to see your Ribbon Flowers :-)

Okay now for those uber cool and super easy lolli pop flowers . You Can Click the pictures to make larger. Tools need to make paper Flowers:• Scissors or Cricut (I used the Plantin School Book Cartridge) • White Paint • Paint Brush • Brads • Spray Bottle or Glitter Water Spray • Hole Punch (I used my Big Bite Crop-a-dile, the smaller hole) • Your choice of Card Stock or heavy weight pattern paper • Distresser is Optional (I don’t use it) Lollipop Flowers (Much like the new Primas!) Step One:Pick your card stock. You can pick 1 paper or a few. Step Two:Cut out your circles If you hand cut them you don’t have to follow sizes just make them one bigger than the last. 1st Layer – 1/2 inch Circle 2nd Layer – 1 inch circle 3rd Layer – 1 ½ inch circle 4th Layer – 2 inch circle 5th Layer – 2 ½ inch circle *You only need one of each size to make a flower but I did 2 of each size to make a second flower.Step Three:Paint the edges of the Circles (You can distress the edges first if you’d like.) You can either let them dry or get a little messy! Step Four:Punch a hole in the center of the circles. Step Five:Pick your brad, I chose silver just because. Step Six:Stack the flowers from smallest on top to largest on bottom. Put Brad through holes and secure. Because I choose to do three sheets of circles I was able to do 1 of each color in a solid flower and 3 that were all mixed up. Step Seven:Lay out your flowers over paper towels and pray with water to moisten. Step Eight:Start to mold your flowers with lefts and cripples to add texture. You might have to moisten them more to mold on the lower layers. Flatten out for better use on Layouts and card or leave as a Bulb. Step Nine:Let dry overnight before using is best. Or use a Heat gun. ~Painting the edges & the molding process are optional.
