Creating Your Summer Paper Flower

You can prepare the patterns without the template if you’re a cutting expert! In case of using the template, simply print and cut out the patterns from the template; trace the template patterns on the selected coloured craft papers, and cut them out nicely.

Take any 2 of the long strips and place one on a flat surface vertically. Take the 2nd strip and glue it horizontally with the first strip.

Now take the rest of the long strips (3rd and 4th); glue them with the crossed strips diagonally.

Apply a small amount of glue on any one of the strips, on its open end. Bring the glued part towards the center of the criss-crossed strips and press the glued part with the center.

Similarly glue the next strip with the center and keep repeating the process for each strip.

Continue gluing the open ends of the strips with the center until covering all 8 open ends.

Now take the small paper strips and prepare the same pattern as created in step 6. Take the spiral pattern and roll its outer end towards the center. Glue the rolled pattern with the center to secure the roll.

All 3 patterns ready? Now let’s create the flower.

Attach the small floral pattern on the top of the large floral pattern by applying glue on the center parts.

Now glue the rolled pattern on the center of the small floral pattern.

Glue the leaf pattern on the stem and then attach the flower on the top side of the stem. Allow the glue to dry.
