I had a vision in my mind of how these might turn out & they did turn out very much like I hoped! These corsages were for my sister and a friend whose sons are graduating this year. Their party was on Saturday and I thought the Moms should have something special too, for all their hard work and planning. I guess I was also feeling a bit sentimental for my twin sister who has a son graduating – I can’t imagine with Brett being only 9!
These could also be made for female graduates or gift toppers.
CUSTOM PAPER FLOWER CORSAGES AVAILABLE IN MY ETSY SHOP:

The flowers are cut from cardstock on my Silhouette. The entire corsage is hot glued together with ribbon and black glitter tulle. I attached it to a pin for them to wear.
Blue, black & silver for Randolph.
Orange, black & silver for Ripon.
“Class of 2012” ribbon is from Michael’s.
What a bummer I didn’t get a picture of the Moms wearing them for this post! What was I thinking? It did appear that they liked them. Two more here

What a great idea! While I love real flowers(I'm a professional horticulturist); these are terrific when you have a large number of people and they're beautiful too! Thanks for sharing!
