To make giant paper flowers you will need…

12 Sheets of A4 Card or thick paper in chosen colour per flower
6 A3 Sheets of yellow paper for inserts of flowers & 2 A4
A4 sheets of green card in chosen colour for leaves and flower base I used one A4 as the largest leaf.
Large wax crayon in chosen colour to add texture if desired.
Dark green acylic paint to give depth to leafs and stalks ect.
Green florist tape, paper version for painting on.
Glue gun and glue
Sissiors
Clean wipe able desk and damp cloth.
Water bucket for brushe
Large 1 inch flat brush for texture on leafs
Large sticks or stick

Staple 4 sheets of A4 sheets of thick card or paper together

Cut a petal shape out as shown with slit at base to give shape.

Overlay the slit at the base of the petal and glue to give shape.

Then glue the other two together and then as four, as shown.

I then added the same but made from 4 x 2 A5 petal form.

Then to make the pollen, fold a A4 sheet of paper as above.

Keep folding like you do to make snow flakes

Fold to make 16 petals, You should end up with something like this when you cut the end as above.

Then cut two pettlas out and glue two as shown.

The repeat and make pollen cones as shown. Cutting out more segments on each layer as desired to make a layer of pollen cones, as shown. The smaller ones are made with A4 paper.

Glue pollen cones as shown one by one into flower.

With a A3 green card or painted, make a 8 pointed pointed bud base as shown, with same method as pollen.

Cut some card as semi a circle with hole in top, glue to make cone, then glue it on to the end of twig.

Cover bending wire for leaf steam in florist tape.

Make as many leafs as desired from A4, & A5 card folded in half cut and folded out and then painted the glue the leaf cut form card as sown.

Make and add as many leafs as desired and glue flower base on.
