Draw five lines on the right side of the green square, and make the spaces a pinky width apart. Once you have done that cut the lines.

Now on each of the little squares fold both corners in to make a triangle.

Creating the Roses

now that you have your red rolled paper and the green with the leaves, wrap the green around the red.

Since it is all rolled up now you have to make sure it doesn't unravel, use about 2 cm of tape to secure you're flower at the bottom

grab your 4 cm roll and cut a slit in it to size it down a little, then get your 1 cm piece cut that down the middle, and hot glue it around your sized down 4 cm roll.

Now with your circle piece that you cut out earlier, glue that to the bottom of the roll

The Finished Product

finally, for your finished product, you can make however many flowers you want, I made nine because I think they fit the best with the size of the vase.

You can also add any finishing touches you want to your vase like paint, glitter, and marker. I chose to create a heart out of leftover cardboard and glued it on the front
