I've had some fun playing with the FP Summers End (the colours in this range are devine) filter paper embellishments. These filter papers are similar to that of a coffee filter. It feels a little like a strong version of tissue paper if that makes sense. They are quite durable.

On this first LO I've used a large filter paper for a photo matt and added a flower embellie made from the 2 smaller papers.
Image

and on this LO I've cut the smaller filter papers to add as embellies on the edge of my LO and added a flower made from the large filter paper.
Image

I've scrunched and inked the 2 smaller filter papers.........
Image

folded them 3 times in half and twisted the bottom.....
Image

opened them up and taped the twisted bottom part.........
Image

then tah dah you have a flower just waiting for a centre..........
Image

using the largest filter paper, I've folded it in half 3 times and cut about an inch off the top edge.........
Image

Gathered it up with a large hand stitch in the centre......I was a little worried about sticking it with a needle and thread but these papers are quite strong and showed no signs of tearing when I was stitching it.
Image

and popped a piece of double sided tape on the back to hold it.......
Image

then with the other piece of the filter paper, I've cut a scalloped edge with some scissors........
Image

and made it up like the top flowers, twisting and taping the bottom and opening it out.
Image

and this is them made up with button centres..........
