Are you a seasoned paper flower maker, or just someone who admires what others make? Rolled paper flowers are one of the most versatile types of papercraft there are. Handmade paper flowers can be used on cards, handmade party decor, paper cake toppers and gift packaging. They are simply stunning when bundled together in various shades and sizes!
Ready to dive into the world of paper flowers? Design Team Member An Pham from The Useless Crafter shows you how make rolled paper flowers in our latest YouTube video. She's got great tips for shaping your handmade flowers and tricks for making sure they stay put together.
Making rolled flowers is a great way to add some extra wow to your projects. You can customize the size and colors to match your project. Here are a few tips you'll find in this video:
- Mixing and matching papers and sizes makes for a full and interesting bouquet when you group these together.
- When adhering the rolled flowers, I like to use hot glue to adhere them and I place a dab on the base circle and a dab on the last rolled part to hold it all together securely. When using hot glue you can place your glue on the circle and then let the flower go a bit if you want a looser flower.
- If your paper is stiff and hard to shape, try using your heat tool to heat up the paper a bit and it will be more pliable and easy to shape.
- If you'd like a fuller flower, look for an SVG design that has extra petals included that can be added around the outside edge of the flower. My favorite is Cricut Design Space flower #mfgfb53.
Here are the Cricut Design Space files used:
- #m295b4e3 - These are the swirls. They are a great shape and easy to roll.
- #m295b547 - This is a shaped flower.
- #mfgfb53 - This is the flower with the extra petals. I'm absolutely in love with this one.

Thank you, 12 × 12 for your response. DS #MFFFB53C will work and appears to be very similar. Thanks again!
Alice and MW – I just checked as well and cannot find #mfgfb53 either. This post is two years old and the file may just be gone from Design Space. But #MFFFB53C looks similar.
When searching for the others please use the # in front of the number and they will come up.
Michelle, Please try to search for #mfgfb53 in Design Space. I’ve tried several times and the search returns no results. Sorry to repeat my request, but I really like your Paper Flower project and would like that 3rd flower SVG/image.
M W – I found the first 2 designs on Cricut Design Space. Try again and don’t forget the # sign in front. Hope this helps.
I also can not find Cricut Design Space file #mfgfb53. Since you say it is your favorite, could you please respond with the correct file #? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
