Easy DIY Paper Flowers Tutorial

This year, many of my friends and I turn 40 on our birthdays! Where does the time go? Anyways, I got one of my best friends an early birthday gift and I wanted to make it extra special for the big 4-0. I came up with this easy DIY paper flowers tutorial using circle craft punches and a couple flower punches. This tutorial will work for any sized circle punches. In the materials list below, I listed the sizes I used.

Here is a quick video:

Time: 20-40 Minutes

Materials:

• Colored Paper
• Any Sized Circle Craft Punch
  • 2” Circle Craft Punch
  • 1.5” Circle Craft Punch
  • 1” Circle Craft Punch
• Any Sized Flower Punch
  • 2” Flower Punch
  • 1” Flower Punch
• Double Sided Tape
• Hot Glue and Glue Gun

I made these flowers for gift wrapping embellishments, however you can use them for so many things like decorating cards, party favor bags, or party décor. Each flower needs 5 circles.

Fold each circle in half. I folded all five circles at once to save time.

Use double sided tape to tape each circle (flower petal) together as shown.

Use a flower punch to make a flower and tape it to the center of the flower. For my flower, I folded the petals upward before I taped it to the circle flower to give it dimension.

I mixed three different hues of pink and green. I hot glued it to the wrapped present.
