Easy Paper Flower Tutorial

Remember this project and these flowers I used?


Well I thought I'd throw up a quick how-to on the fun flowers I used on it. I just wanted something quick and easy... and these fit the bill :)

All I used were:
*paper I had on hand
*hot glue gun
*big buttons

I took the piece of scrapbook paper and cut it in 6 strips:


Then curled each down into a loop and secured with the hot glue gun (don't crease them- keep them with a pretty petal loop!)


Here's all six glued:


Then I glued them on top of each other going around in a circle to make the flower shape:


Here it is glued in their 'circle'


Pop a button on and YUM!


A fun, easy flower!

This one I did with ribbon:







Happy weekend everyone!

*stay tuned... this week is Spring Break for me and I have tons planned :) *
