Paper Selection
The paper flowers can be cut from any color or patterned cardstock. The simple lily comes in all varieties of colors. In this lesson I cut some flowers from patterned paper and some from felt. Your imagination is your only limit.
Cutting the Simple Lily
If you want to cut the flower out of felt or fabric and you have a maker use the rotary wheel.
If you don’t have a maker, it is a little harder. I tried using fusible material and haven’t made it work yet but I’m still trying. What I did do to get the felt cut was first use the deep cut blade and then attach the felt to contact paper. I used Duck Brand contact paper. Place the felt on your mat with the contact paper down and cut on the felt fused setting. Tape the whole piece down to the mat with painters tape. The cricut cuts the design twice. It cuts it well if it isn’t to intricate of a cut.
The parts of the flower can be cut on one mat.
