How to make cute paper flowers

I found a video on YouTube making paper flowers, here's my own tutorial below


Start with 6 squares of thin card stock sizes- (in inches)
2x 4"x4"
2x 3"x3"
2x 2"x2"



Fold each square in to a triangle


-
Fold again



And again




Cut your triangle into an icecream shape





If you have chosen thick card the smaller squares can be a bit tricky!!



Unfold, and you should have six flower shapes



Make a small hole in the centre of each flower




Choose a brad to match



Starting with the smallest flowers feed each one onto the brad, try and put them at different angles









Continue until all flowers are on the brad and secure


Next find a bottle which can mist water, I used an old curling spray bottle



Spray the flower with a light mist



Scrunch up each flower layer one at a time, re-misting each new layer









Continue until all layers are scrunched



Very carefully unravel, card stock can rip as it will be pretty soggy






And there we have a pretty home made flower! If you have spray glitter you could spray to add a bit of sparkle

Allow to dry and it's ready to use on any card making/ scrap booking project
