Hi Silhouetters, my name is Lisa Barrie and I have a paper crafting blog called Scrap Til Your Heart's Content.  Wow, how cool to be a guest here on the Silhouette blog sharing my project for the free “Shape of the Week”.


On my blog, I create anything made with paper including scrapbook pages, cards and home decor items. Of course, I use my Silhouette Cameo and the amazing software to create all of it. For me, the fun part of writing a blog is getting to share how I make things, so I write a step-by-step tutorial for almost every project, and you can find them here.

It’s another exciting Tuesday morning because when I wake up, I have to check out the free “Shape of the Week” and this one is awesome. I love making paper flowers and this shape makes the most beautiful paper roses ever! Today I'm sharing this sparkly, rose head wreath perfect for a wintery princess or flower girl, and of course I have a full tutorial you can see it here.


 Have a Happy Tuesday! Lisa

  15. Love these flowers. Downloaded the shape and tried it out but not very good. Then happened on your tutorial where I learned misting made the flower more maliable. Wow what a difference. Thank you.

    1. I'm so glad you tried the misting and it worked for you. It does make a big difference, you can get the flower tighter and shape the petals creating a much more realistic results! :) Lisa
