Free Templates & Tutorials For Making Paper Flowers With Cricut or Silhouette

It's much faster and easier to cut the large petals by hand - but cricut is great for making the centers, the leaves, and even the templates for cutting the larger petals.

Cliff Notes:

Which paper? Any card stock seems to work just fine. There are specialty papers that make much prettier flowers, but to start - grab a pack of card stock on sale. Recollections paper from Michaels seems to be a favorite. For the smaller flowers, anything over 65lbs seems to be a lot harder to roll.
How much paper? A LOT. The large paper flowers look best when really full - lots of layers. Exactly how many sheets will depend on exact size and design.
Tip - just cut the petals by hand. As much as we all love that cricut, unless it's a fancy petal, cutting by hand is SO much faster. Use cricut for the centers and leaves and fancy cuts, and to cut templates.
