A few weeks back we made a crepe paper flower, well, I still had a bunch of it left over and while I was stalking blogs this week I found this idea.

You will need to circles of cardstock and crepe paper.

Cover the outside of edge of your larger circle with adhesive. Then we are going to do a fan fold of the crepe paper all the way around the circle. This does not have to be exact.







Then repeat with your second circle.



I then put the smaller circle on top of the larger one and adhered.



Next, cover the exposed area of the top circle and fan fold around the center.
you will end up with a three layer flower.


Here is my completed layout using this flower. I sprayed mine with Glimmer mist and added a center with ribbon.




I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial. If you should happen to play along , post to this post by Friday..October 8th and you could be eligible for some random pointage.

Love this! For some reason I have decided to hoard crepe paper. I can never throw it away after the party if over and it gets added to a box. Finally, something I can use it for!

Very pretty. Do you need to spray the crepe paper with archival spray?

Question - when you fanfold the crepe paper, do you have to adhere each fold or does the fold stay on its own?

if you run a row of adhesive around the edge the fanfolds will adhere to that ..because you are woking in a circle you have a little bit of an angle to your folds and it is usually enough to hold it.

These flowers were super easy and fun to make.
