Hello Crafters, here is my latest creation! Colorful paper flowers! Make them for your next party with my Flower Petal Template! Here is a quick list of what you will need to make one large paper flower.

Supplies:

Cricut Cutting Machine(optional)
Flower Template (Forever Free Files)
8.5×11 cardstock, (I use Recollection 65 lb from Michael’s)
Scissors
Smooth thick color marker
Hot glue gun & glue sticks
6in cardboard circles (I use 6in cake boards) or 4in for small paper flower
Floral wire

First thing to do is to download my free flower petal template below. Included in the download are cutting machine files, SVG & DXF; along with printable files PNG & PDF. You will get 4 different flower petal sizes, x-small, small, medium & large.

Large Flower (16in)

5 large petals
5 medium petals
5 small petals
x-small not needed

In this tutorial, I will show you how to use my Printable PDF files. They’re to be used as a tracing template and can be used over and over again. With my SVG cutting files you may like your cutting machine to cut it for you. However, when it comes to making paper flowers, I prefer to cut them with scissors instead. (Seems faster).

After unzipping the downloaded folder, find the 4 separate PDF files and print them using your home printer. I use an off white cardstock, the thicker the better, the max thickness of what your printer can handle. Once you print all 4, cut each template petal out. You will be using these as a tracing guide. Lay one template petal on your color choice of 8.5×11 cardstock, trace and cut each petal. I like to save time, because we all have busy lives, so I without tracing lay the template over 3 sheets of paper and cut around template with my scissors and cut 3 sheets at once.

Next you will have to curl your petal, this gives it the realistic look! I use a Crayola thick marker for my large petals and a smooth pen for my other petals. Curl each tip of the petal. Then you will need to fold the bottom tab where the glue is going to be applied. Do this to all you petals. Now we need to get our base ready. With a 6 inch cake board and floral wire, find the center and poke the wire through each end and tie it on other side. (Refer to pictures below). You can heat up your glue gun and start gluing the outer larger petals first spaced evenly. (See pictures below). Do this with each different size petal.

Add any paper flower center of your choice. And your done!

Tips: Make sure your scissors are sharp. Be cautious when curling your petals; paper may rip. Have tons of glue sticks at hand. You can make 2 small petals / 4 x-small petals, with one 8.5×11 sheet of cardstock.

What paper do you use for Cricut paper flowers?

My favorite type of paper to use for these rolled paper flowers is 65 lb cardstock. It's sturdy enough that it won't rip, but it's still flexible enough to make pretty flower petals. You can find suitable cardstock in 8.5″ by 11″ size sheets or 12″ by 12″ size sheets.
