These are so simple to make but really beautiful. You could use the technique to make garlands , add flowers to invites and even make brooches. One tip: the labels peel off easily but if they are saturated in paint it gets tricky, so try not to gob it on the middle.
- Gather your materials you will need some paint, dot labels ( from stationary aisle), cupcake liners in different sizes, brushes, card stock and double stick tape. Ignore the ribbon- at first I was thinking I’d make a garland.
- Start by putting the circular labels in the middle of the liners.
- Paint. I had so much fun painting these , crafts are so relaxing.
- Let dry.
- Peel off the center to reveal a uniform middle for all the flowers.
- Tape some of the smaller flowers into the middle of larger ones.
- Tape flowers onto the card stock. I think I may frame it.
So cute! I love it!
they did turn out so pretty! we usually make flowers with layered tissue paper, but I like the effect of the painted cup cake liners.

Actually your “Poppies” look like the wild morning glories growing on so many fences here which reminds me – I have to walk my dogs
these are gorgeous! I think my daughter would love to make these… after she gets off the tractor with her Dad that is. 🙂
I love this activity for my little girls! You could paint these in red, white and blue for 4th of July cards or invites to a party. Thank you for your wonderful crafts!
These are just gorgeous! They would look beatiful framed in a shadow box. I think they actually look nice with those colored circle stickers left in the middle as well.
oops, I mean “beautiful.” So much for multi-tasking!
