In this video we are going to make some very cool 3d flowers. We are going to start by cutting out the flowers with our cricut machine. Then we are going to use our mat marker to make the lines on the flowers. We are going to put some seed beads to make it look like it is growing. Lastly we are going to pop up the flowers and create the hole in the center.
How to Make A 3D Flower Out Of A Ruler
When kids are learning about math and geometry, they often cut a piece of paper and use it to make a 3D shape. This can also be done with a ruler, though it may take some patience to figure out the exact measurements needed. The 3D flowers video below is an excellent tutorial that explains the process of making a 3D flower out of a ruler. The steps include:
1. Mark out the measurements you need.
2. Make a fold in the paper.
3. Make a crease on the fold.
4. Line up the ruler
5. Fold the ruler

Creating 3D Flowers Using a Cricut
How to make 3D flowers using a Cricut? This is one of the easiest ways to make 3D flowers using a Cricut. You’ll want to know that you’ll need at least an Expression or Expression 2 machine to use this technique, and it will take you longer than the other techniques. For the best results, you’ll want to cut off your flowers the size of a real flower. You’ll need to trace your flower template onto a piece of scrap paper, and you’ll want to use a sharp pair of scissors to cut it out. Cut out one flower at a time, then transfer the shape of the flower to the mat. If you don’t do this, the flower will just look like a pile of petals. Using a large circle blade, cut out the circle shape around the petals, then remove the circle. Trace the circle outline onto the piece of scrap paper, and cut it out. Cut around the circle, leaving the center circle exposed. Take the circle out, then line up the two pieces of paper and place them face to face. Cut a 3/4″ slit on the back of the paper. You’ll want to cut along the lines of the circle outline, and cut all the way through. You should have a very open slit at the top, with a solid piece of paper left on the bottom. Place your flower in the center of the hole,
