Create a Wedding Bouquet With Cricut Paper Flowers From Book Pages | Bride and Bridesmaids

Flowers
I’ll show you step-by-step how to create Bridal and Bridesmaid and/or Maid of Honor bouquets using paper flowers made from pages of a vintage book. I used a Cricut Die Cut Machine with the CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge to create 3D paper flowers and pinned them onto a foam ball with pearl pins.

UPDATE: the Art Philosophy Cricut Collection is now only digital. You can purchase it here on Cricut’s website using my affiliate link: http://bit.ly/JaymaCricut

BE COURTEOUS
**Please keep your opinions about using a Bible for this project to yourself. I think it’s a beautiful thing for a bride to be able to carry the Bible down the aisle in such a unique way. I am not using my personal Bible…it is a Bible I purchased for this specific purpose. I do not mean to insult, but I personally love the significance. If you do not want to cut a Bible, you can use a different type of book. Thank you.**
