Paper Flowers

This month my Stamp Clubs made paper flowers - we had so much fun!

I had several e-mails asking if I was going to do a tutorial on them. I wasn't, but my intention was to kind of show you how I made them. Well, that isn't going to happen either! However, I did take some closer photos and I am going to tell you where I found the instructions for each flower. *Ü*



They almost look real, don't they?


The rose shown here in So Saffron and in the vase, Pink Pirouette, were kind of based on this tutorial HERE. I used the Island Floral die-cut.


This is a regular daisy and I have it shown here in Pink Pirouette and the vase in So Saffron. Directions for this one can be found HERE. I used the Daisies #2 die-cut.


This one is my favorite!! Shown above in Rose Red and in the vase in Whisper White, I mostly used the tutorial found HERE. I used the Daisies #2 die-cut.


The Perfect Plum was so fun to make, I used the Blossom Party die-cut. Cut 5 of them, fold 4 of them in half and half again and glue them all to the center of the flower that you did not fold. When dry, fluff them up with your fingers.



The wild looking green things were found HERE and the lily (I think) was kind of based on several I had seen but really used my own . It is made with the Island Floral die-cut and a tiny middle based on the wild green thing.


Try some, they are surprisingly easy!
