Beautiful cards with their own handsBeautiful cards with your own hands. You will need:

  • Scissors and breadboard knife.
  • Paper for postcard and flower. You can take almost any paper you like, as long as it is stiff enough to hold the petals at the base.
  • Instant glue.
  • Watercolor and pastel crayons (optional, you can do without them).

1. Download the templates and print them out.2. Cut out the templates. Place them on colored or white paper for the flower and trace. If you are using white paper, paint the future petals with watercolors or pastels. Wait until the paint dries and cut out the blanks. 3. For the card itself, prepare 2 identical sheets of fairly thick paper. You can make a card of any size - just align the line from the diagram with the center of one of the sheets. Transfer the drawing to the sheet and make cuts with a craft knife. 4. Start assembling the rose, looking at the diagram. First, glue and insert the largest petals into the base (insert 1 into slot A), then smaller ones (2 into slot B), and so on. When you insert the smallest petals, fix everything with glue on the back side. 5. Glue a sheet of paper on top, which will become the outer layer of the card. Done!
