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.

Easy Paper Flowers How To

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

Easy Paper Flowers DIY

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

Easy Paper Flowers with Circles

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.

Easy Paper Flowers with Punches

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

Here are a few after photos.
