This is the flower bouquet I gave a co-worker whom I've been teaching 6th grade math with for the past 2 school years. I won't be working with her next year, and I'm going to miss her terribly! She taught me so much about teaching 6th grade math. Hopefully next year I can do just 1/2 as well as she has done over the past 2 years.
I purchased the tutorial to make these flowers from Leigha Rock. She is AMAZING! Every tutorial I've purchased has turned out stunning! Everyone ewwws, ahhhas, and oh mys! over my flowers each time I use one of her tutorials. I can't thank Leigha enough for her beautiful work, wonderful ideas, and well-written tutorials!

Most of the flowers are made using various punches. The daisies are made using the now retired Stampin' Up! Daisy #2 Big Shot die. Yes, those are real pencils all the way around the "vase". Oh, and the "vase", well, that was a bit more challenging than I thought, but not a problem! I used the middle section of a 20 oz. Pepsi bottle. I cut the top and bottom off (if you look at a bottle, you'll see a natural place to cut it). I then pushed that plastic tub into floral foam. TADAH! Instant vase!
