Tutorial by JT's Creations

Materials:
sheet of paper in color you would like your rose
heart punch
floral wire
Elmer’s glue
tooth pick

 

 For Personal Use Only Please 

 

Step One:

Punch out several hearts from your paper. You will need about 8 - 10 hearts per rose.

Step Two:

Cut a piece of floral wire. You’ll only want it an inch at the end, but you can cut it longer to make it easier to work. It’s easy to cut it down later.

Step Three:

Fold a heart in half, lengthwise and unfold. You will do this with every heart you use for your roses. Use a toothpick to place glue along the crease. Glue to the top of your piece of wire.

Step Four:

Put just a bit of glue at the bottom of the crease of your next heart.

You’ll want to attach this heart to the heart already on your wire. You’ll want the round part of this heart to be on the side of the flat part of the first one.

 

Step Five:

 Put glue on the bottom of the crease of your next heart. Glue to the bottom of your budding rose, off to one side. Repeat on the other side.

Step Six:

Glue your next heart along the “seam” formed by the last two hearts. Repeat on the opposite side of your bud.

Repeat Steps 5 and 6 one or two times, until your rose has as many petals as you would like for it to have. Let dry.

Step Seven:

Once dry, gently shape each “petal” by bending, slightly curling, etc.
