Craft Project: Tissue Paper Flower

This flower gives a lifelike impression and with thin paper, you can make a very elegant flower. You can arrange them on a flat plate or use as an accent to your project.

Approximate Time: 10 minutes

Supplies:

• Tissue paper
• 2 inch Scallop circle punch
• Hole punch
• Brad

Instructions:

Make a pile of 6 small sheets of tissue paper with light pink first and then dark, one after the other.

Note: You can make the entire flower with the same colored paper and with any size of paper.

Punch out scallop circle shapes, and then punch a hole through the middle of it.

Insert a brad into the hole through all the scallops and secure it on the back.

Scrunch each piece of paper up toward the center. Take care not to tear them.

When all scallops are scrunched, gently open out the petals.
