Rolled Paper Flowers Banner for Spring

Spring is in the air! Haha, I made this darling sign weeks before there were other things in the air. So let's focus on the scroll sign with rolled flowers and less on the phrase. Make a rolled paper flower banner for Spring!

Supplies Needed for Scroll Sign and Rolled Flowers:

Tombow Adhesive Dots

Chipboard (or some thick cardboard)

White cardstock

Tombow MONO Multi XL Liquid Glue

Colored cardstock

Tombow Xtreme Adhesive Roller

Bakers twine

Wood molding strips

Tombow Dual Brush Pen (in black)

Tombow Mechanical Pencil

Scissors

Step 1: Make the Banner

Begin by rolling the Tombow Xtreme Adhesive around the edge of the chipboard. Look around your house and see what you have that you can use…maybe a cereal box.

Then, place the white cardstock on the chipboard. Next run some adhesive across the top and the bottom edge of the cardstock and press the wood strips onto the tape. 

I had this wood in my scrap pile, so I didn’t even need to leave my house for this project. Look around and see what you have to work with…maybe some old wooden rulers.

Now the banner is made. The Tombow Xtreme Adhesive is phenomenal for its sticking power. Add some hand lettering to the banner. I added, “Spring is in the Air.” If you want to improve your hand lettering, Tombow has an excellent workshop to take. 

Step 2: Rolled Paper Flowers

Use the MONO Graph Mechanical Pencil to draw a spiral shape on the pastel cardstock. Make it about six inches in width. This design is for a scalloped edge flower.

Then, tape the edge and begin rolling from the outside into the center.

Once at the center, apply more Tombow Xtreme Adhesive or Tombow Adhesive Dots and press the flower down onto the adhesive.

Add some leaves with a simple fold down the center and tape them to the flower.

Make another flower using a strip of yellow paper with a fringe cut edge. Apply adhesive to the bottom edge and roll up the fringe.

Cut a spiral out of another color of paper.

Repeat the rolling process by starting on the outside edge and working your way to the center of the flower. Press the flower down onto the Adhesive Dots.

Again, add leaves to the flower.

These rolled flowers are perfect pastel colors and great for Spring...but make them any color you like for any season or holiday!

To keep the flowers secure, drip some Tombow MONO Liquid Glue down inside the flower. The Tombow Xtreme Adhesive and Adhesive Dots will keep the flowers together in the short term, but the MONO Liquid Glue will ensure that they stay together in the long run.

Let the glue dry completely. It may drip out of the bottom, so place the flowers on wax paper or a non stick surface while it dries.

Now use the pencil to sketch the lettering on the banner and go over it with the black Dual Brush Pen. Let the ink dry and then erase the pencil lines. At last, use the MONO Liquid Glue to adhere the flowers on the spring banner. 

Let the adhesive dry and hang it up to brighten things for spring.

That's it!
