Pop-Up Flowers

By Ginny Adams

Open the card and out

pops a bunch of brightly

coloured flowers. Easy for

children to make, or for

younger children assembling

the pieces would be fun.

Materials Required:

Pieces of brightly coloured

paper for dots.

Gold Label sticker:

XL280U-01, Happy Easter.

Hole Punch.

Brightly coloured thin card.

Tracing paper and a pencil.

Straight and deckled edge

scissors.

P. V.A. Craft Adhesive.

Card mount:

DEC1U Bright Yellow.

For the border I have cut out small rectangles

1cm x 1.5cm in three colours alternating them

along the side and top edges of the card. These

don’t need to be spaced very evenly but do lay

them out and adjust as necessary before gluing

into place.

To Make The Card:

Open out the card mount and place it face

down on the work surface. Cut 2 pieces of green

card to 7.5cm square and glue them onto the two

outer corners at the bottom of the card approxi-

mately 2mm from the side and bottom edges.

If children are making the cards, depending

on their ages, it may be better to make templates

for the stems, leaves and flower heads before-

hand, then they just need to draw round them

onto the paper of their choice and cut them out.

The flower stems are made from strips of thin

green card and are between 4mm and 8mm wide.

Make them as long as needed adding leaves to

the sides as required, these are easy enough to

cut freehand for older children.

Make four stems approx. 10cm – 12cm long

adding leaves towards the tops. Glue them

onto the card, two each side of the centre fold,

keeping them between and approx. 1cm in from

the green squares. The outer two stems should

be placed at an angle so they spread outwards

at the top.

one long edge with deckled scissors to make a

pretty top. Fold the card in half and fold approx.

8mm at each end outwards as shown.

Open up

the card and

glue coloured

dots randomly

onto the front

as shown.

Choose

four flower

heads from

the diagram,

make them in

any colours

you like and

glue them to

the stems on

the card. Add

triangles,

squares or hole punched circles in contrasting

colours to the flowers heads

to finish off. Decorate the

front of the card in the style

of your choice. I have used

small squares of card placed

diagonally, added a couple

of flowers and some Gold

Label Easter stickers.

To make the pop-up sec-

tion, first cut a piece of card

to 17cm x 8cm. Cut along

Turn the

card face down

and glue the

five flowers

onto it, taking

care not to put

any across the

fold. Run

a line of glue

down each

folded end on

the back of the

card and glue

it onto the card

mount between

the green squ-

ares leaving a

small gap of

approx-imately

2mm each side.
