Paper Cup Flowers
  1. Take a coloured cup and mark a line roughly one inch from the base of the cup ,this will become your flower head.
  2. Now find the spine of the cup and draw a line either side of it stopping a few centimetres short of the bottom of the cup, this will become the stem.
  3. Holding the cup with the stem facing you, squash the bottom of the cup flat and draw two symmetrical leaves either side of the stem. Make sure that they include the base of the cup.
  4. Next, cut out your top ring leaving just the stem, then carefully cut either side of the stem and your leaves.
  5. Cut slits around the flower head to make petals.
  6. Add a happy face.
