These jumbo paper roses were made to style a Kraft themed baby shower. Shortly after posting and seeing the response, I knew I would be sharing a tutorial for this polka dot bloom. So here you are, the tutorial as well as a pattern for these jumbo flowers. It is set up to print onto 11×17 paper for the large bloom, but you can print onto a smaller paper for a large (not jumbo) flower. Part of the fun of these flowers it the hand painted polka dots which are easy to make with a round sponge pouncer and craft paint in any color to match your event. To assemble this flower I used a combination of hot glue and a stapler. These jumbo blooms are a fun way to decorate a shower, party or a backdrop to any event.

Use the sponge pouncers to decorate your kraft paper.
Using the printable pattern trim 5 of each petal and one center.
Roughly roll your center piece and staple it at the bottom.
Using the blunt edge of your scissors, curl the top two corners of each petal. Cut a slit halfway up each petal, cross the edges together, overlap and staple.
Staple the smaller 5 petals together and attach to your center with staples or glue.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the larger petals and glue or staple into place at the back of your flower. Simple!
