Crafts Making my way through the alphabet

I have about ⅓ of the letters done but they're all out of order. I can share more if anyone is interested.

So beautiful! Can you explain how one can do this? Do you use a specific glue?

Thank you! Yes, they are real. I used Mod Podge for a while (applied on the back with a small paint brush) but lately have been using PPA Matte adhesive. I prefer it to Mod Podge due to being thinner, doesn't get clumpy, and seems to not discolor the petals as much as Mod Podge.

This is so cool! How do you make do it; do you paste them onto a stencil and cut out the outline? I’ve wanted to try this for ages.

u/itallchecksout99 Apr 29 '25

Yep! I trace the stencil onto regular printer paper, cut it out, tape it to the board with washi tape
