Summer Kid Craft: DIY 3D Flowers

Are you loving the look of handmade, paper flowers? Oh I am SO loving them. Something about the texture of paper, just gets me all happy and excited. So I was super happy when Echo Park Paper recently released new 3D Flower Dies. I thought it would be fun to show you how easy it is to create 3d Flowers with your kids using these amazing dies. Be sure to pin your favorite images to inspire you later!

3D Flower Instructions


Step 1: Use the dies to cut out the petals for the flowers. A small flower will use only the smallest petal and will need 5-6 petals cut. A medium flower will need both the smallest and medium petals die cut (cut 5-6 petals). And a large flower will need all three petals cut (cut 5-6 petals).

Step 2: Use a pencil to gently bend the petals back.

  1. Children love to be in control! It's your kid's chance to give you a glimmer card drill. It's ideal to utilize streak cards that don't show the appropriate response anyplace, or you can conceal the key with a bit of veiling tape. Make certain to incorporate slip-ups with the goal that you can test your kid's information and the person can have a great time adjusting you! DIY tips and tricks
