Easy to make greeting card :)
You will need:
*Cardstock
*Scrapbook paper
*scissors
*paper punch
*A pencil
*A paper muffin liner
*Bakers twine
*Glue
*White paper
*Stapler (optional)
*A glass/ round lid, etc
*A small button.
Measures...
To make a rosette just a bit smaller than the flower, you will need a glass or round lid, with a diameter not bigger than 3 1/2".
I used a blue piece of cardstock, 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" for the card itself.
A strip of green "squared" scrapbook paper, 1 1/4" x 5 1/2", on one side of the card, placed lengthwise.
Lets start with the muffin liner flower...
Lay flat the muffin liner and fold it in half, and then fold it in half again. Do that three times. After doing so, it should look like the yellow muffin liner in the picture above.
Draw a petal on the muffin liner as it is shown in the picture. Then cut on the lines you drew, and unfold the paper muffin liner. It should look like the red polka dots liner above.
Glue only the center of the muffin liner flower to the cardstock you are using for your card.
Using the glass/round lid, draw two circles on the white paper.
Cut the circles. Fold them in half twice. Unfold, and cut only the radius. Then fold the paper in half, twice (again) as it is shown above.
Use the scissors to make a scalloped edge. It would be easier if you have scalloped or zig zag scissors, but you can still get the same result with regular scissors.
Using the paper punch next to every scallop, make holes all over the edge.
The paper now will look like a doily.
You have to do this with both circles of paper.
Crease both doilies in between every scallop/hole. Now you have two "half-rosettes". Glue them together. After doing so, you can also use a stapler to help hold them steady.
Glue a little piece of paper (about 1/2"x1/2") to the back of the rosette. Once it dried, you can glue the rosette on top of the muffin flower on your card.
Glue the flower to the rosette.
Make a small bow in the holes of the button and then glue the button to the center of the small flower you just did.
Cut some scallops on one edge (lengthwise) of your strip of scrapbook paper. Glue the strip on the card as it's shown on the first picture.
That's it!
