Become a MemberI have shared various paper rose designs over the last two years and this Valentine’s Day I wanted to bring them all together in one glorious rose filled post. One of my oldest and most favourite designs is the long stemmed red rose which also comes in a beautiful blush pink. If you fancy doing something different, you can use that same pink rose (or any color for that matter) to make a pretty mini rose wreath. With the same pattern you can also use a lovely metallic paper to create a rose gift topper or mini rose art for your wall. The mini rose art includes the SVG file for this pattern which is easy to enlarge for the bigger roses. You’ll also find the ombre crepe paper rose, and my newest favorite, the tissue paper rose both of which has a more delicate look to them. If you like to go big, my jumbo kraft paper rose is a perfect way to make a statement. For those who are beginners or want to learn some of my rose filled tips, you can watch my video on How to Make a Paper Rose. For me Valentine’s Day is all about sharing love and joy with others but there’s not a year gone by that I don’t treat myself to a small bouquet of beautiful paper roses for the kitchen table too! Have fun and Happy Valentine’s Day from me to you! ~ Lia

Lia you’re my hero! I am so not-artistic but my mind so desperately wants to be! Through my life artists have always amazed me. Sure, I’ve made silk flower arrangements, then made jewelry for the longest time and still make Richard Petty’s bracelets he wears all the time, but making paper flowers from your videos makes me feel like such an artist! Thank you for enabling those who weren’t blessed with artistic talent still be able to express their creativity through this beautiful art form!
Oh Kim, thank you for your sweet comment! Sounds like you definitely have a creative side that you should be proud of 🙂 I’m glad you’re here crafting along with me!
Hi Lia,
Made some roses for my wedding bouquets however, I was wondering if you had any tips on how to make rose buds.
Thanks!
So glad to hear you are using these for your wedding! I will be posting a paper rose bud template and tutorial soon 🙂
Dear Lia..
You’re my inspiration to made flowers from crepe paper.. but i’ve some problem when I lack to made a roses flowers petals template. May I request the roses flowers petals template from you?
Please. i’m so begging you.. 🙁
Hi Rynn, you can find the rose template in this post https://liagriffith.com/black-rose-paper-flower-bouquet/
Hi this is so amazing! thanks for the idea! I just wanted to ask what kind of text weight paper do you used for this https://liagriffith.com/diy-paper-rose-wedding-bouquet/
and crepe paper for this https://liagriffith.com/video-make-a-paper-ranunculus/
where can I buy them? can I buy it online? Thanks.
Hi, I buy all my crepe paper from Carte Fini (their papers are from Italy and just amazing) For the wedding bouquet you are referring to I printed a pattern (which is included in the post) normally I purchase all my paper (text weight is a must for flowers) from Paper-Papers. You can purchase from both companies online.
Dear Lia,
You are my inspiration! I can’t believe those are made by papers until I tried it out. I made mini rose bouquet and a bunch of roses in a vase just to add surreal experience of those who don’t really believe that it made out of paper, lol.
Thank you for sharing tutorials and stuff.
Greetings from Malaysia!
So great to hear that you had a great experience! They are very pretty when made and can be used in so many ways. Hugs!
I have been a fan of you and your blog for such a long time now. It’s been so long I believe you were still using scissors to cut the petals of paper flowers lol. You have come such a long way and I knew from the 1st time I visited this site you were going to literally blow up!
Its been over well over a year since my last visit. My husband had a stroke Jan . 1, 2014 so I haven;t had much time for being creative or anything else. Losing my husband took alot of my will to create away. Then a couple weeks ago I bought my Cricut Explore and when I saw the Make It Now flower bouquets I knew immediately whose those were lol. I;ve hand cut so many of those petals, I’d know them anywhere. I still have the templates in a file on my computer lol.
I really just wanted to say bravo to you and just how proud I am of you for your success. Women are taking the world of business by storm and I love showing my young daughter just how much can be gained when you put everything into your dreams. You and women like you prove anything can be accomplished when you take your passion and run with it.
Congrats to you on how far you’ve come. Your hard work shows and shines. Thank you for sharing your creativity and passion with us.

You are so sweet, welcome back! I am so sorry to hear about the lost of your husband! And I feel honored to hear that I have become a role model, female entrepreneurs is obviously a topic that is very close to my heart and I am happy to be one of them!
I just had to leave a comment telling you how much I love and appreciate your blog!!! It is simply wonderful. Your paper craft is so aesthetically pleasing, and is just really amazing art!!!! I became interested in DIY projects after moving to the country and having more time at home on my hands then I was used to….it has been so fun! Your paper rose was one of the first paper projects I tried. For my birthday this month I got a Cricut Explore and now I am so excited to try all of your paper flowers!!!! Can you use crepe paper in the Cricut?
Thank you so much for this website!!!
Sincerely,
Ruth Avery
Happy Birthday! What a great present. It does not cut crepe paper, the surface isn’t flat enough so it ends up ripping the crepe.
These are so beautiful! Looking at some of these, I have to actually remember that they’re made of paper. It must take so much talent and patience to make these. I have several roses carved from wood and it’s always amazed me at how intricate they are. Very cool!
Thank you so much! It is easier than what it looks, you should give it a try (I have to warn you that it is kind of addicting) Roses carved from wood though, that would take a lot of talent and patience.
These are adorable! I can’t believe they’re made out of paper. Very creative! 🙂
Thank you so much. Sometimes even I am surprised to see what you can make with some paper. Have you seen this dress I made out of a Vogue magazine https://liagriffith.com/vogue-magazine-dresses/
Lia, your roses are EXQUISITE! But then, so is everything else you design and make–so fine and elegant!
Thank you, your comment just made my day!
Breathtaking! the roses as well as the lanterns from your previous post. I was a little disappointed you didn’t win the contest but I know with your amazing talent only great things are coming your way 🙂
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! I am so grateful to have such supportive readers! And now I have a gorgeous kitchen to enjoy:)
It’s amazing how such pretty flowers could be made with paper. Gorgeous.
Annamaria
Thank you Annamaria!
Those are absolutely beautiful! I love how you were able to create different looks by changing the paper. Stunning!
Thanks, it is amazing what you can do with some paper;-)
Beautiful! It’s amazing what you can do with a little bit of paper.
Thank you!! It is fairly easy and yet it ends up looking so pretty:-)
Dear Lia,
thank you for your tutorials. I made a flower wreath after your instruction.
Greetings from Germany!
