Thanks Yolanda, they’re pretty aren’t they 💕

[@natalierozean5989]

Thank you again, Nina! Years ago I tried this very same thing, only w the shiny clear laminate. I had an awful time w my flowers jamming, buckling, puckering. I thought it was just because the flowers were too dimensional. I did, however have a few turn out well. It never occurred to me to use a thicker laminate, since I believed thickness to be the problem. How ABSOLUTELY LOVELY! I MUCH prefer the matte finish as well! Since watching you I’ve learned so much... many ideas have stemmed from what I once started and you have perfected. So happily, I have all the bits and pieces necessary to continue.

I also did not know you could get matte laminating pouches. I love the idea of gromets. I enjoyed your video very much!! I have thousands of flowers from putting them in stained glass, alas I can't bend and solder anymore..so this will be exceedingly FUN. Postage has risen AGAIN and is very expensive, I'll have more cards than I can ever send thought.

amazing tutorial actually works ! i did this with some flowers that even though i dried them they were still a litttle thick and the plastic didnt stick in some spots. So i recommend using really thin flowers. But overall awesome

Thank you 🌼

[@Cyrilmc222004]

I like the matte finish better too. I have already got some of those Matt finish ones that I bought to do my serviettes with I just haven’t got any dried flowers I will have to look at your video on how to do some there are plenty of daisies in my grass. I would use those long ones with snowdrops in as bookmarks for those of us who still read real books. Love the whole project thanks Nina

[@NinaRibenaMixedMedia]

Daisies look wonderful when pressed as they are so delicate. It takes minutes to dry them with an iron and you can also dry flowers in the microwave, but you have to be careful not to burn them. Glad you enjoyed this project ❤️

For easy corners for the window card, use your crocodile hole punch at each inside corner, then I cut up to each hole. It's also a good way to cut slots too.😀 The tall pieces would make great book marks. Thanks 4 shareing
