Happy Friday, everyone! What a wonderful way to start the weekend. . . with a new paper flower. The anemone flower is a favorite for weddings, with delicate pale petals and a black centers parallel the traditional wedding dress and black tuxedo. I am loving this pale pink variety and recreated it for you in my version of the anemone flower. Start with the prints of the PDF which is available for you below. Print both sides on a light, letter weight paper to keep your petals fine and delicate and follow my tutorial. You can make the bouquet in the photos with 12 flowers or just one to add a little spring to your February weekend. ~ Lia

These are just stunning Lia! Thank you so much for sharing a tutorial. I can’t wait to try my hand at making my own! xo Ez
Thanks Ez! I am thinking this may be my favorite paper flower yet. :-)
so wonderful idea, thanks for sharing
Thanks Evgenia!
Hey I love your flower tutorials but I was wondering if there were any that don’t require printing? :) xox
Hey Melissa, You can print one as a template and use it with colored paper. I will be honest though. . . for my photos and tutorials, it is the print on the paper that makes them stand out from any other paper flower I have seen. I do encourage people to be creative and use any material they like.
Such gorgeous flowers, as always might I add. Thanks for sharing & providing a tutorial too.
Thanks Christine. I have at least another dozen of these cut out and ready to make into more projects. :-)
Wow, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, it is absolute elegance. Thanks, Lisa, you are wondefully made with huge talent.
Awww, thanks Edna. So sweet.

Hi, I’m Mìcol!I’ve found your tutorial on Pinterest (I’ve started now to use it :-)) and I love it!!!!I need to make some anemone for a lamp and your tutorial is beautiful, Thank you very much!!!!!!ciao!!!Micol
Thanks Micol. I would love to see photos of your lamp when you are done!
Hey Lia!I love this project best and cannot help trying at once. I took a sheet of copy paper,hand-sketched all the prints on it and trimmed everything. Then I found I’m out of glue so I made a little glue with flour and water LOL. It took me 10 min to make a sheer white version but it is still so beautiful. Looking forward your better works!
