Tutorial Monday: DIY Paper Flowers

Hi Folks!

Louella here again, sharing you some simple ideas how to make a DIY Paper Flower.

Paper flowers have been a growing trend at many recent projects - so fun and a great DIY project and likely more cost effective than real flowers.

 

These paper roses are relatively easy to make & just adorable.

Here are the steps.

Step 1:
Look for any Free Paper Flower Templates of your choice in the internet. 
(Unless you have some dies and machines to use in making your template. )

Step 2:

Print and Cut the chosen template.

(This is the template I used for the flower above photo. However, you can use any  flower template in different sizes)

Step 3:

Trace the template onto the paper you want to use and cut the image out.

Step 4 :
Distressed edges to make it stand out even more.

Step 5:

Shape the petals with any stylus available.

 (Cushioned surface to apply different levels of pressure for molding paper shapes.)

 

Step 6:

Enhancing details.

 You can put stamens,pearls,brads and etc in the center.

 Then, you're done! :-)

These are a brilliant (and inexpensive) way to jazz up and add a little fun to your projects.

NOTE : 

You can create as many templates you want.Just be creative! :-)

Hope you all like this fast and simple  tutorial.

Thanks for dropping by! I treasure your comments.
