Fun Stampers Journey has a new Paper Fan Die that makes Rosettes. I love it. However, this Poinsetta Die was not made with the die, but with our amazing Journey Scoring Board.
Start with 8 x 10 piece of cardstockScore ever ½ inch on the 10 inch side (score first, it will save a lot of time)
Cut into two inch strips on the 8 inch side.
Cut those strips in half at 5 inches
Fold each strip in half, mark at ½ inch from the right on the open bottom end (the fold at the top)
Cut at an angle from the top left corner at folded area to the mark on the unfolded area (1/2 inch in from the right side)
Add tape to both sides of 4 of the pieces. Tape together with the points all pointing the same way.
I did a LIVE on Facebook and created a gold Poinsettia. Hope this is helpful.
Supplies Used:
Marcie do you have instructions on how you did the tree?
My down line and I are trying to figure it out. Did you use the fan die?
How many strips did you use on each level?
Thank you so much.
Hi there Sherry. Thanks for checking out my website. I don’t have instructions but it is fairly simple. Use 3 Paper Fan Dies for each row and glue them to a circle. Start out with the size of the die, then decrease a 1/4″ each row. Glue the bottom of the circle and set it on top of the bottom circle and all the way up. Using hot glue is the way to go. I used white liner to attach each fan to each other. I hope this helps!!!
Thank you so much. We are going to try it. Can’t wait to see how they turn out.
