I was contacted today by a fellow scrappy friend (hi Tina!!!) asking me how I created the flower on my Congratulations card in the post below. This prompted me to post here a link to a few of the fun, innovative, and interesting paper flower making tutorials that I have found online. This is only a small selection of all the flowery goodness available for you to recreate, but these are my personal faves;
Spiral flowers
Tissue paper flowers
Curly-petal rose
Roses using ready-made flowers
Flower sprigs
Pinched paper flowers
Dahlia flowers
Lollipop flowers
Sewing pattern flowers
3D flowers using scallops
Torn lollipop flowers
Rolled flowers
Folded flowers
Accordian flowers
Which brings me back to the original question... how did I make my flower? Well it is pretty much just tutorial number one (spiral flowers are my number one fave flower atm!!!) but I used a scalloped circle as the base rather than a plain circle. I also added looser spiral layers below the tightest spiral to make the flower fuller.
I hope you find this post to be a great creative reference! If you know of any other interesting links for making your own flowers, please post them in the comments section so I can add them to the list.
Happy flower making!!!
