 |
| Roll your stem for the flower. I am using a skewer stick to assist with this process. |
 |
| A sheet of notebook paper will form the base of the flower. |
 |
| Ball the paper into a ball. |
 |
Add Tacky Glue to the center of the ball.
Make sure you use enough to hold the green stem.
|
 |
| Place green stem into notebook paper where the tacky glue is and press sides together. |
 |
| Wrap ball with a small piece of tissue paper and seal off. |
 |
| Take One piece of white and one piece of colored tissue paper |
 |
| Fold white and blue tissue paper together back and forth accordion style. Measure out 2 1/2 inches for each fold. |
 |
| Use Pen to glue flowers to the ball. Make sure the colored tissue paper is facing you. |
 |
| Start rolling the stem. Here I am using a wooden skewer to help with this process. |
 |
| Take the 2 x 3 inch piece of green paper and fold in accordion style the long way. |
 |
| It should look something like this when you're done folding. |
 |
| put the accordion piece back together. |
 |
| Take scissors and cut one side diagonal to form a point. |
 |
| Flip it over and cut the other side the same way. |
 |
| You should have this when you are done. |
 |
| Time to make the flower. Take the colored paper and fold one edge down by 1/4 inch |
 |
| Open the fold up so that you can see the crease, then fold it in half the other way as shown here. |
 |
| Cut 1/4 inch strips across the paper. Be sure not to go pass the crease at the upper edge. |
 |
| Take the cotton swab and roll each of the strips up to the crease. |
 |
| Turn the paper so the curls are facing down. Then add tacky glue down the side as seen here. |
 |
| Wrap the flower around the stem as shown here. Make sure the curls are point up. |
 |
| Take the leaves and put glue on them as shown here. |
 |
| Glue leaves to the stem. |
