Flower Gift Bow

1. Cut two 2" strips of the scrap paper and one strip of width 1.5" . You will also need 3 card stock circles. The size of the circles will depend on how large you want your flower to be. The circles have to be of 3 different sizes, each one a little smaller than the one earlier.
2. Fold the paper strip four times and make cuts along the edge of the strip. Open the cut strip.
3. Now use a pencil to curl the cut edges.
4. Glue the paper strip to the biggest circle. You have to create a pleat after every 3 to 4 cuts. This gives the flower some dimension. Repeat the same process for the 2 smaller circles. I used a hot glue gun for this process.
5. Now stick all the 3 circles one above the other.
6. I embellished the flower using a button I bought at Jo-Ann's.Add some leaves and you are done!
