This project involves four of my favorite things; Sizzix, Halloween decor, paper flowers and upcycling! Learn how to make these poofy pom-pom flowers from tissue paper and book pages. I used Sizzix 3D flower #2 to cut my petals, but you can easily do this project with a scalloped circle paper punch, or with good ol’ scissors and a scalloped circle template. Each “petal” is a scalloped circle folded in half and then in half again.
SUPPLIES:
Tissue paper in orange and black
Old book pages
Green floral wire
Sizzix 3D Flowers #2, or scallop circle punch, or scallop circle template and scissors
Vase or other container for your flowers
Ribbon
TUTORIAL:
Cut your circles using the Sizzix 3D Flowers #2 die. Here is a quick video showing the die and the various flowers you can make. For the bouquet shown here, I used both the large and small scallops for 2 different pom pom variations.
