  • u r jst out standing doin work wid paper

    its magical

    awww i love flowresss

  • Easy tutorial to follow. Thx!!!

  • this is really cool, i just tested it with regular writing paper, next is the tissue paper. not sure if its going to work though:/ this is awesome thank you!!!!

  • IM NOT A LADY!!!  lol, trying to make a dozen for my ashley and you keep calling me a girl!

    AWSOME flowers i like this better than tissue paper but i already went and got some tissue paper :\ what should i do!!?? lol

  • Done perfectly! Yu are an awsome teacher....I will so check out your blog!

  • You are so unbelievable! Talent, talent, talent!!!

  • Super cute flowers.

  • Fantastic!!!!!

    

  • wow this is great never thought of making yr own flowers in 3D with the cricut machine

  • How thick is the paper? I`ve been trying with a type of printerpaper but it seems to be to stiff for "molding" the folds and such.

  • Ok so I didn't have the cartridge you were talking about nor did I have the sizzix die. So I went through my cartridges I have and found the flower on the cricut essentials page 41. So far I've cut them at 2 3/4 , 1 1/2 and now at 2. Omg they are sooo cute. Thank you for showing

  • seriously amazed with your work  Thank you for showing this

  • OMG im going to try this. maybe ill be able to make them out of some fabric and make them for little girls.

  • Thank you so much for sharing! I am so obsessed over paper flowers - too cute! You are very creative and absolutely love your bouquet!! Thanks again! Going to check out your blog :0)

  • Wonderfull! Thank you! I'm going to use these for my wedding!

  • So glad you showed how to do it on the cricut cause I don't have the other product/die cut. I love the wedding flowers. Did you put something on them to make them so sparkley or did you just use sparkle white paper? Thanks for showing how to do this! :)

  • nice!. thanks!

  • that is awesome just what i was looking for!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you

  • Brilliant, cannot wait to give it a go!

    

  • thanks heaps for sharing. what a great way to use the cricut instead of being confined to 1 size with the die.

  • Just awesome and so easy. Thanks so much.

  • Very Nice!! Thank you for sharing this with a Cricut owner ! Although I have a Cuttle Bug, I won't have to buy another die for it.

  • wow...i love the bouquet you made...just beautiful..I can't wait to make these

  • love it, love it, love it and thanks, I.m headed to my studio to try it..

  • good

  • i loved it, and I love anything that can save a buck.

  • Thank you! what a wonderful tutorial

  • Great tutorial , gonna go make some right now, THANKS!

  • I truly enjoyed your instructions. You're an excellent teacher and I'm totally inspired! Thanks!

  • Wonderful video!

  • I think you're an excellent teacher! I like that you get right to the point of your tutorial and not drone on and one with inane chatter like some other videos that people post. I get impatient waiting for them to get to the actual lesson. Your voice is also very soothing and easy to listen to. Thanks for sharing your techniques. i've subscribed to your videos.

  • what type of paper is used or can be used ? I notice the paper is a little stiff

  • @SassyTriniKARS shes using cardstock...i assume it would work with regular paper too though but the edges might not curl as well.

  • wowww! - just discovered your channel. Thank you so much for the excellent instuctions on making these flowers. *Rushing off to make some* LOL :)

  • Thank you very much, Kathy, for sharing this idea. I made a giant one using Fit to Page, and then tied it to the handlebars on a bike for my granddaughter's birthday instead of the usual bow. I like the fact that I can make these any size I want just by turning the size dial.

  • Brilliant video and your voice is clear to listen to. Very straightforward

  • This is an amazing video. Thank you

  • Can you also use the flower on the mothers day bouqet cartridge?

  • Fantastic! Thank you so much for the easy to follow tutorial. You are a wonderful teacher. I also loved remstars comment. His girlfriend is quite fortunate! Please share her response to this lovely gesture.

  • I loved your video you really are a great teacher....U R so easy to understand and I need this....your instructions are perfect. TFS

  • the flowers for your wedding are beautiful i was nervous because i waas working on a project and ran out of prima flowers and you video helped me throught it lol:)

  • Remstar, you're awesome. If she doesn't like it, I will! lol

  • i'm a guy and just made one for my girlfriend lol i hope she likes it

  • thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial =) my mom loved the roses on the card!

  • looks great - thanks :)

  • i don't have a Cricut, can't you just cut out a similar flower shape with reguler cardstock paper??

  • @lovla1 you dont need a cricut or die cutting machine to make flowers like this, it helps but it's not necessary. You just want to try to cut them out the same way every time, if possible and make sure the petals are pretty close to the same size so when you put them together there's no overlay. Although slight variations may actual add to the beauty of the flower - in nature no two flowers are alike. If you have a flower stamp you could stamp it and then cut it out.

  • gr8 tutorial.. but I don't have the that cart. is there another cart I can use to make them?

  • @ChocoDrop2 - there are a bunch of cartridges that will work. You could use the flower on Plantin Schoolbook. That's what I use and if you want the petals more rounded just trim them with scissors before you put them together. But there are a lot of cartridges with similar flowers that will work. Pagoda has one that has the hole already there in the center so it lays flat. Mother's Day Bouquet has a ton of flowers you could use, you just have to look through what u have.

  • thanks for such a GREAT tutorial :) Amazing flowers!~JenE

  • Hi Kathy, thanks for the tutorial re the TH flower variation, love it! and your wedding flowers are beautiful! thanks so much for sharing. Valerie

    Kim

  • pretty

  • omg!! i love that n plus i have a cricut.....i have a suggestion for those who want theirs more square..y dnt they just cut the cricut flower at the ends to make it more square n it looks alot the same as the die cut shape rite?? hey, i was just using my noggin!!

  • Awesome idea and it looks so easy! Thanks for taking the time to show us how to make these beautiful flowers. Can't wait to make my own!!

  • Thanks so much for this tutorial!! I used my glittered cardstock and the flowers came out beautifully (used my Cricut). I also took a clue from some Prima flowers I have and I stamped the petals with my French Script stamp, then heat embossed them ahead. Looks terrific!

    I'm relatively new to all this and my sister can't believe the things I've been making. Thanks to ladies like you who are so gracious to take your time to teach us!

  • You gave the BEST demo on the Tim Holtz grunge flower-I LOVE YOUR FLOWERS! thank YOU very much Kathyorta!

  • So beautiful!

  • Easy to follow good demonstration. Like the extra ideas like the glimmer mist idea.

  • Which other paper could I use for this please? I tried paper but it wasnt heavy enough and tore with my cricut. I have a papermania 240gsm card but dont want to go wasting it if thats no good either. I would appreciate your help. Great turorial!

  • thanks for sharing ~ I have an Expression and hardly use it.. I need to get it fired up! I bought the Tim Holtz Tatttered flowers die tonight.. but these definitely look so easy and so beautiful. thanks again . Pam T.

  • You are SO VERY Clever..How Beautiful...I just Love Them..Have not been inspired to scrapbook for a long while after suffering a Huge Heart attack But now 6 months later I watch you and feel ready to go try these flowers...Many Thanks...Jenny.R...AUSTRALIA

  • tried it and it was really cool ...but on the cricut mat at 21/2 you could only get 8 flowers, their are two flowers on the back the one you pointed to is the one with the six petals and your using the top flower on top which is five petals. You need to use your shift key to get flower number 2 which is the one your using..

  • great flowers such inspriation. must try them

  • great flowers such inspriation. must try them

  • I watched this video a couple of nights ago and yesterday remembered this flower. I didn't have to go back and refresh my memory because you explained each step so well.

    The flower is beautiful.

    Thanks

  • Thank you so much for this video. I knew someone would come up with a way to use that flower. I tried using that flower following Tims directions but they just did not look right. So thanks again.

    Thanks so much!

  • very nice thanks for sharing your great

  • Kathy,

    Thank you so much for doing this tutorial, I do not have a big shot or sizzix but I do have a cricut! I've been dying to make these flowers but haven't been able to until now...thanks a bunch for showing us how! :)

    Alexandra

  • Kathy...that was a great video and super easy to understand. I love how easy you made it with the cricuit...and how cool will it be that you can adjust the size of the flowers so easily!

  • Wonderful tutorial!! Definitely gonna try these roses!

  • Love the way you teach how to do this!! Very clear. Thanks so much! Can't wait to do this!

  • This was really helpful! I tried one with the flower cut from the IN My Garden cartridge....it's a bit different cut than the one you used, but I think if I mess enough with it, they'll be ok. The first one was kind of funky....but I'm going to try another!

  • Really good video. lovely clear instructions Thank you :)

  • Great video, slow and easy for me to understand, just how I need it, lol, will definatly see more videos from you, bye!!!

  • Thanks for savings me alot of trail and error time this afternnon. I am going to use the rose on a valentine wreath.

    Thanks Debra

  • Great job. I'm thinking you could adjust that flower in DS and make the flowers look different giving some variety. Your wedding flowers were beautiful and I'm sure more sentimental since they will look like they did the day you gog married

  • This is such a great tutorial! thanks for making to so easy to follow.

    Smiles, Jeannie

  • Hi Kathy

    Thanks so much for this tutorial, i learned the easy way to make this roses. I have the grunge paper but don't have the flower die. Its intemedating to make this on grunge papers when im not really used of them yet. So this is great with just the designed papers. I made some already with the same papers you used. (Botanicals from MME, right?)

    Thanks again.

    Rose :)

  • Absolutely beautiful...thanks!!

  • WOW ! Those are Georgeous ! I will most certainly be making these ! Thank you soo soo much ! Janie

  • Thank you for sharing-Inspired now to make some beautiful flowers.I was thinking of selling my George cartridge but will now be hanging on to it!!

  • these look like the flowers imade a video for last year.

    take alook if u get time

    cute flowers well done

    wish i had a cricut

  • I dont even know exactly what to say im speachless. These are even more beautiful then the tim holtz ones. I loved the wedding flowers one you did, what is that on it thats sparkleing so much, i just have to know. I just got a cricut for my bday/xmas gift so im super excited, i dont have that cartridge tho, but im sure any flower will turn out the way urs has, TFS!!! I judt love this.

  • Kathy...this is so beautiful! I just saw a video done by another YouTuber doing the Tim H. tutorial as well. However, I totally love the way that you explained in such detail and I just love the flowers. I have that cartridge too and I must try it! Thank you for sharing and your bouquet was gorgeous!

  • Gorgeous! I am going to try this! It will be my first dimensional flower! SO excited!

  • Oh my gosh! I am loving all your videos. Thanks so much for sharing with us! Do you have "svg" files or "scut" files for sale or are all your files on your blog just "cut" files?

  • Really beautiful bouquet..Nice technique TFS

  • Fun! I'm going to try!

  • GREAT tutorial!!! Someone else who loves their hot glue gun and Cricut as much as I do too! ;) These are beautiful, thanks for sharing!!

    Samantha

  • Thank you for for sharing this. I wanted to do the flower but wasn't that crazy about the sizzix die just as it is. I have the George and will be using it and your technique. Thanks again.

  • These are great! My youngest daughter is getting married this year & money is definately an issue for the wedding budget! I would love to see how you did the flowers for your wedding - they are gorgeous & would be more budget friendly! Thanks!!

  • Love this.

  • Thanks so much for your tutorial. I have been trying to learn how to make theses. I've watched Tim Holtz's video, plus a couple other people's on YouTube but couldn't quite get it to look right. I have a Cricut and this cartridge so I tried it and I was able to do it! I also loved your wedding bouquet. Very nice :)

  • Thank you for sharing this technique! Now I'll dig out my glue gun and try it out!

  • I just cut out some flowers with my cricut last night to see if I could play on the Tim Holtz grunge flower...thanks for showing me the way! Too bad I don't have a hot glue gun, so it may take me longer.
