Flower Punch Board Tutorial, Coupon + Giveaway

July 23, 2014
Hello everyone! Have you heard the news that We R Memory Keepers and American Crafts are now one company? I am excited about this acquisition. For my Studio post today, I used the new WRMK Flower Punch Board and some beautiful paper from AC/Pebbles Special Delivery.
The flowers are BIG – ranging from 3" to 9" in diameter. I had so much fun mixing and matching the sizes. It is amazing how these beautiful flowers were made from a simple punch board and a stem kit!
Flower sizes and simple directions are printed on the board but it took me a while to figure out how to fold the petals. Once you have it figured out, it will be very fun and relaxing! So I put together a quick tutorial to share today!
"Mountain Fold" means that you fold the paper down at score-line to create a "mountain"; "valley fold" means that you fold the paper up at score-line to create a "valley".
Keep folding and you will see a flower shape forming:
And when opened up, you will get a flower!
Curled petals give the flower a more realistic look.
I punched a scallop circle to use as a simple layer with the flower.
Remember to add the beautiful center stem piece before you screw on the end:
Easy, peasy, right? All you need is to pick your flower size and punch away!
Here are the sizes I used on my project:

Tutorial
Flower Size: S (5" dia.) Paper Size: 2-5/8" x 12"1. Punch and Score:
Follow the directions printed on the board.
2. Fold the Paper:
"Mountain Fold" means that you fold the paper down at score-line to create a "mountain"; "valley fold" means that you fold the paper up at score-line to create a "valley".
Keep folding and you will see a flower shape forming:
3. Finish the loop:
Add adhesive to the first little triangle as shown and adhere the two ends together.
And when opened up, you will get a flower!
4. Curl the Petals:
I think it is a genius idea to include a roller in the board!
Curled petals give the flower a more realistic look.
5. Add Stem
We get 10 sets of stems in one Stem Kit.
I punched a scallop circle to use as a simple layer with the flower.
Remember to add the beautiful center stem piece before you screw on the end:
Easy, peasy, right? All you need is to pick your flower size and punch away!

This is very cool! Seems like a lot of fun! I think the big ones would look awesome on a gift bag. :)

I would love to make a bouquet of these flowers or add them to a wreath.

I love your flowers! And I would also make flowers to put in some of my vases. They are empty right now, so they need some pretty paper flowers in them! Thank you so much for the chance! :-) xo

I would use them with the Gift Box punch board, to decorate the top of the boxes- that would be adorable!
Itty on
I would make flowers to decorate a mini-album
