  Step 1

  To make your flowers you'll need about 4 sheets of the paper of your choice.

• 

  Step 2

  Fold your paper in half.

• 

  Step 3

  Cut down the line of the fold so you have two equal pieces.

• 

  Step 4

  Take one half of your pieces and fold it in half length wise.

• 

  Step 5

  Then fold it in half length wise again.

• 

  Step 6

  Take one corner and fold it in towards the center fold.

• 

  Step 7

  Turn your paper around and fold the other corner to the center fold.

• 

  Step 8

  Next take one of your flaps and fold it away from the center fold.

• 

  Step 9

  Next take your scissors and cut a curve along the fold you just made.

• 

  Step 10

  Unfold your last fold and continue to cut your curve using your fold as a pattern.

• 

  Step 11

  This is what you should have when finished cutting.

• 

  Step 12

  Open up your folds and you should have the start of your flower.

• 

  Step 13

  Cut out one of the petals of your flower.

• 

  Step 14

  If you like you can color or decorate your flowers now.

• 

  Step 15

  X marks the spot where you should put a dab of glue or what I found works best- a small piece of double stick tape (I used the kind you get for scrapbooking)

• 

  Step 16

  Glue or tape your flower together so you have six petals.

• 

  Step 17

  Repeat that process until you have 7 flowers!

• 

  Step 18

  Take your first flower and place your tape or glue where the 3 X's are marked.

• 

  Step 19

  Cover your left X with another flower like shown.

• 

  Step 20

  Repeat on the right side.

• 

  Step 21

  The two flowers you just placed down should have tape on the places that are marked as well.

• 

  Step 22

  Place a 4th flower on the center top so it should cover 3 of your Xs. That center flower should also have Xs on all 3 petals.

• 

  Step 23

  Cover the left side with a flower the same as you had before.

• 

  Step 24

  Repeat on the right side.

• 

  Step 25

  Place your final flower on top.

  You should have a fan-like shape.

• 

  Step 26

  Next get your card ready.

• 

  Step 27

  Next place your a piece of tape on the very center petal. Its very important you do not tape anywhere but where I have indicated on all the flowers!

• 

  Step 28

  Place inside your card and close your card pressing down where your tape is. Repeat on the other side.

• 

  Step 29

  Open up your card and you should have a 3D bouquet of flowers!
