Snowflowers in 3 sizes!

Last year I shared some paper ornaments that I a made with my daughters art class. I called them snowflowers. This year I wanted to make some more and thought it would be fun to make then in different sizes. I started with the original and then made one smaller and one bigger. 

Let me start by showing you the regular size. 

Aren't they so pretty! And easy to make. Here's what you need: 

7 strips of printed paper that measure 1/2" x 12", scored at 3" and 7". 

BUT, I like to score a piece of 12" x12" paper at 3" and 7" and then cut it into 1/2" strips, much easier than scoring seven 1/2" strips.  Then I have enough strips to make 3 snowflowers.  Each strip gets bent into a petal. The finished flower is about 4-1/2" in diameter. It is hard to explain how you bend and glue them, so I have a video for you on how to make them below. 

Next up is the smaller version. 

For the small snowflower you will also need seven strips. These strips are 1/2" x 9" and are scored at 2" and 5".  The finished flower is about 3-1/2" in diameter. 

Again, I started with a piece of printed paper that was 9" x 12" and on the 9" side I scored the entire piece of paper at 2" and 5" and then cut them into half inch strips. You will see how much faster this is in the video. 

Lastly I have the largest snowflower, where I added a fourth loop to the outside of each petal. 

This beauty measure just over 5" in diameter.  To make it larger you make the 7 petals for the original size and then add another loop to the outside of each that is 1/2" x 6". 

I added some fun elements to the center of each snowflower. This one has a poinsettia that I made HERE. 

I also thought I'd help make the ornaments a little more sturdy by adding a small element to the back side. 

Here I used a small punched circle from coordinating paper. 

On the others I used a button or rhinestone that matched. 

Now let's take a look at how to make these ornaments.
