Fold Paper Into a Secret Note Square. Giant Paper Rose Flower. If you loved the beautiful DIY wedding this morning and Nata’s gorgeous paper flower bouquets, you are in luck as Nata is sharing how she crafted them with us!
She was inspired by a template created by Morgan Levine on Martha Stewart (as was I in the flowers I created for this styled shoot). I just love that this basic idea has inspired different brides to create their own version of giant paper flowers – you might remember these equally awesome giant paper flowers from this wedding I shared last year. :) Thanks so much Nata for sharing how you created your giant pink paper rose + special thanks to Studio Castillero for the photos of the DIY + her wedding! Materials (to make one giant rose) Step 1: Cut the petals Cut 5-6 teardrop petals and 15-6 heart-shaped petals from the petal colored crepe paper. IMPORTANT: Crepe paper is directional so it matters which way you’re cutting the paper. Repeat until all of your petals are cut Step 2: Cut the leaves + calyx Step 3: Make the rose stem.
How to make recycled paper flowers. I learned to make paper flowers a long time ago with directions from a library book.
They don't require any adhesive, and there are just four shapes to cut out. Use them to decorate gifts or make wreaths. I chopped up a fancy Urban Outfitters catalog for these. You can make template pieces to trace around and then cut out the shapes with a scissors—what I used to do. But this seemed like a good test for the Silhouette cutter, so I recreated the pattern pieces in Illustrator on my Mac and commanded the machine to cut them for me. If you'd like to download PDF templates, get the large flower here and the small flower here. To cut with a Silhouette machine, download a .dxf file here. To make the flowers, do the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.Thread the pieces onto the stem, from smallest to largest. Artwork. DIY's. Paper crafts: mini grad cards.

I don’t know about you, but every year we know of quite a few graduates. To save money, and to add a personal touch to what is usually a card full of money, I made these mini graduation cards.

In my original card plan, there was no sentiment (which is why the stamping materials are not pictured in the supplies list). 8. 9. 10. Use glue dots to attach the hats and banners to the front of the cards and you are done! You can customize the cards to match school colors or to match your graduates favorite colors. Crafting.
