Fun Friday ~ Pressing Flowers



 This should be more of a Monday Memory.
Mother taught me how to press flowers between wax paper between the pages of 
a Sears and Roebuck catalog which are no longer.
Now its one of the last rather skinny phone books we'll probably ever see
 And I used parchment paper which doesn't hold moisture as much as wax paper.
I don't think we knew about parchment paper back then?
 These were some "just because" flowers Mr. G gave me.
 I'm planning on using the bright colored petals to make some all occasion cards.



They have been in this book over a year now.
The cards to be made are on the "get around to it" list.

  1. Now I'm interested in seeing how you actually use the petals on your cards and protect them from breakage.
