Flower Frenzy Corsages

My mom and I are making corsages for the nursing home's senior prom using the Flower Frenzy Bigz Die that is on the Clearance Rack.


The doily on the bottom is retired. However, you can substitute the Metallic Foil Doilies, the Tea Lace Paper Doilies, or even the Darling Doily Thinlits Die.

Each corsage has four shapes: the flower center, leaves, and the two sizes of flower petals.


Because I didn't want to cut all of the shapes for this project, I measured the size of each of the shapes that we needed with my tape measure.


I wrote down the dimensions of each shape and added some cushion room. I copied my measurements to the top of the die itself.



Flower Frenzy Bigz Die Paper Measurements

Dimensions
Leaf Branch
4” x 4”
Largest Flower
3-1/2” x 3-1/2”
Medium Flower
2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
Small Flower
2” x 2”
Smallest Flower
1-1/8” x 1-1/8”
Heart Petal Flower
2-1/2” x 2-1/2”
Leaf
2” x 7/8”
Circle
3/4” x 3/4”
Flower Center
1-1/2” x 1-1/2”


Using the measurements, I cut cardstock for each of the corsage parts.


Now, we are working on cutting each of the flower petals, leaves, and flower centers. We'll keep you updated on our progress.

Thanks for stopping by!
