"TOOL TIME TUESDAY" Paper Blossoms Tool Kit

Happy Tuesday Blogger Friends!
For all you flower lovers out there...
Today's tool is the Paper Blossoms Tool Kit by McGill. It works in conjunction with the Paper Blossoms Punches which will also be featured today. So you get 2 for 1.



The Paper Blossoms Tool Kit includes 3 dual tipped stylus tools and 1 straight reverse tweezers in a convenient storage case and snap closure. Each stylus tool offers a dual tipped ball giving you the variety of sizes you need to create the desired look ready at your fingertips. With easy to read identification for each tip, referencing the sizes is now easy...no more guessing. Tool Kit compliments the Paper Blossoms Punch Collection of Rose, Peony, Hydrangea and Lily to make realistic 3D flowers. Stylus and Tweezers offer you the variety of tip sizes so that your paper flower and leaves shapes are molded to a realistic shape. The straight tweezers makes all small punch designs easier to hold and apply small parts allowing you to focus on your project all the way to the finest detail.
Here's a look at the punches:





YOU BASICALLY PUNCH OUT YOUR PETAL SHAPE USING THESE PUNCHES, YOU SHAPE THE PETALS WITH THE STYLUS OF CHOICE AND THEN ASSEMBLE YOUR FLOWER.



Check out the video using the rose punch & tool kit:


You can find it at online retailers, the McGill site & even the overstock.com. I believe that some A.C. Moore locations are carrying it too. I know mine does.
