I had a request for a tutorial for the folded flower card I posted here. I also posted another flower with this technique here. And here is another card with the folded flower.
Punch 9 circles. I used the 1 3/8" Circle Punch for this flower
Fold 8 circles in half using your fingernail to get a good crease.
Fold in half again.
And in half again.
You should have 8 circles folded in 1/8s.
Lay the folded pieces on the 9th circle with the points facing center and glue in place.
This is what it will look like when you're finished.
And here's a side view.
Put a brad in the center.
Punch a scalloped circle of the same or coordinating paper to put behind the flower.
Take a deep breath, pat yourself on the back, and mount it on a card.
I hope this tutorial is helpful and you have fun making these pretty posies. If you have any questions just email me.
Enjoy!
