Paper Daffodils tutorial 

         Dear friends Thank you so much for the heartwarming response to my Easy Paper flower tutorial using the flower punch board.Sharing yet another paper flower tutorial- this time cheerful summery Daffodils.

Paper Holder

       I altered this box into a paper/ magazine holder to store some of my A 4 papers but my daughter has laid claim to it as she wanted the " magic " Daffodil flowers!!

        In the picture above you can see the dimensional nature of the paper daffodils.Since I didnt have any pretty yellow paper I stamped and embossed regular chart paper to make my own pattern paper to create the  Paper Daffodils.

       The leaves were hand cut ,inked with distress ink, stamped with the same flourish stamp I used on the flowers and embossed.I couldn't resist adding a favourite Cheery Lynn  Butterfly to keep the flowers company!

1. Take a 2 x 5 1/4 inch strip paper and punch a paper strip like you would do for a XXS flower but don't score the diagonals and only partially score the vertical scores as shown.

6. Use the slotted end of the shaping tool to gently evert the inner tube petals
7. Make and stick a fringed paper flower to the center .I used a Tim Holtz Sizzix fringe die to make the fringed center of the flower but you can easily handcut a fringed flower like I did in this Large Paper Flower tutorial .
