Hey Friends,
Well I finally got around to making the cornacopia that I dreamed about a couple weeks ago. What I dreamed was not this exactly. Believe it or not my husband came up with this idea for the holder part of this. It was like duh, why didn't I think of that. So I have to give my husband Francis credit partly for this creation. Which is kind of scary in a way LOL.
I used the petal cone and emboss it with the houndstooth embossing folder to make the cornacopia and made different combinations of flowers to create this. I didn't fold the score lines and when I embossed it the score lines just dissappeared so I was able to make a cone shape out of it. I punched holes all around the top in the petals to thead my ribbon through and tied a bow. It is all held together with wooden skewers as stems and I have a round piece of floral foam in the cone. Also to attach the skewers as stems I used the same technique I did in the flowers in basket video. I won't be doing a tutorial on this so I thought I would give you some instructions on this.
Have a great day!
Sharon
