What a gorgeous way to add a little personal touch to your wedding! One of the goals for planning a wedding is to create an event that is both unique and memorable. And one way you can do that is with my paper rose wedding bouquet. This version of my paper rose includes three tones of pink, peach, and blush. The watercolor print on both sides creates a visual texture that adds a painterly touch.
La Vie en Rose
If you are not planning a wedding, no problem! This lovely bouquet would make a great Mother’s Day gift or centerpiece to dress up a table. Below you will find my tutorial on how to make this bouquet. You can also refer to my paper rose video tutorial. Simply replace the skewer shown in the video with floral wire.
Tools
- Scissors
- Low-Temp Hot Glue Gun
Materials
- White Text Weight Paper
- Floral Wire
- Floral Tape
- 2 Yards of Ribbon
Printing Instructions
To make this paper rose wedding bouquet, you will need prints of the eighteen paper rose PDFs and two sheets of the leaf PDFs, printed onto text weight paper. Important to note: The PDFs have two pages… one to print on the front and the other to print onto the back. For best results, print on a laser printer.
You will find the link to download the PDFs below. Note that the preview does not show the complete design, but when you download and open it in Acrobat, you will see exactly what you will be printing.

Wonderful one…
Wow just one word to say awesome. It’s a really great design that looks like natural flowers. the color combination is also really nice.
Thanks!
I don’t have access to the pattern for this flower https://liagriffith.com/video-tutorial-frosted-paper-rose-bridal-bouquet/ would it be possible to just get a PDF for the leaf pattern?
As a member, either monthly or annual, you have access to all of our patterns.
I noticed that these flowers don’t have sepals. Would it be possible to have those added, or is there another template that we can use to add them?
Here is a newer version of this rose. https://liagriffith.com/video-tutorial-frosted-paper-rose-bridal-bouquet/
What is letter weight paper? Regular paper? Or is is heavier like cardstock?
It’s also called text weight, like regular copy paper. Not as thick as cardstock 🙂
This is amazing! I’d like to make this for my wedding bouquet, but I doubt I’ll be able to do it properly.
I’m sure you would create something beautiful!! Give it a try 🙂
I saw your video and read the article. Great Job, and yes thank you for sharing how to make an amazing wedding bouquet.
Thanks alot for this!!
You’re so welcome!
Can I make this rose with your extra fine crepe paper?
Hi! You’ll want to follow a pattern specifically made for crepe paper: https://liagriffith.com/crepe-paper-rose-buds/, or https://liagriffith.com/crepe-paper-garden-roses/
These bouquet Are so lovely and beautiful
Thank you!
Where can i find the paper needed to make this project ty
Hi Gail! You can use any white text weight paper you have on hand. We love to buy from PaperPapers.com.
These are just beautiful. I have been looking for something different for my wedding. Thank you for the tutorial Lia
We love to hear that 🙂 You’re so welcome!
Thanks a Lot For Sharing
Look Beautiful more thane fresh flowers
Thanks!!
OMG!! These are do real. Initially I thought that these are original flowers. What a great work lia. Really awesome!!
Thank you!!
Hi lia, this is such a beautiful wedding bouquet you made there. Makes me wanna try it right away, hoping to see more like these in the future. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Loved the concept and the idea of the whole thing. Really a unique DIY bouquet you made there and would love to give it a try by myself. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks!!
Awesome art! I’m going to try these roses hope I will make it properly. Thanks for the idea oof di flowers.
Hey, thanx for sharing this with us.
Nice article
Wow! such a wonderful idea .
It’s too beautiful. I really want to try this one.
for a moment I thought it is original but later I realized its an amazing paper art and i loved it.
These are awesome!!! Thank you… now all I have to do is to try and choose which flowers I prefer and make them (not an easy task). I also found many more diys of different flowers and leaves. I will definitely try them .
Amazing idea, Looks like real one
Thanks!!
Hi!
I’d love to try this with my cricut, and the video mentions it’s possible…but I have no idea how to get the proper file. Where can I find the right file to machine cut these?
Hello! This particular flower does not have an SVG file (I couldn’t find a reference to that in the video, so please let me know where you saw that so we can correct it!) If you search “rose” on our site you’ll find quite a few options that are compatible with cutting machines. This is the closest to this pattern: https://liagriffith.com/classic-paper-roses-video/
I thought these are real flowers at a glance, but when I started staring them, I came to know its really a beautiful papercraft. Looking so good that really shows your dedication and hard work.
Thank you!!
Hi Lisa
Flower are beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Is there any way to change to color of the flower template, the blush does not quite match the color scheme for the wedding so I would like to change it is this possible.
Thank you
Thanks Marilyn! Unfortunately we aren’t able to customize this freebie.
It is so beautiful and creative. I hope to make one soon. Thank you for sharing your wonderful work and ideas.
So glad you like it 🙂
I would really like to make this but the PDF for the rose petals doesn’t download properly. It’s just 6 blank pages.
Make sure you download it to your desktop and open with Adobe, vs. viewing in a web browser. Sometimes the web browser viewer won’t display the images.
I really would like to make these roses. The template for the flower downloads ok. But the one for the Rose Leaves is the same as the Blush Rose Template.
Hi Maria, I checked the downloads and they’re working fine on our end. Could you refresh the page and try again? If you still have trouble, contact us at hello@liagriffith.com.

Hi Lia,
My fiancé and I are thinking of using these lovely roses for our wedding bouquets and centrepieces.
How long do you think these flowers will last? Our wedding is not till October 2018 and we were wondering whether to start making flowers now or wait until closer to the date.
How should we best store the flowers before the wedding? We will also be shipping them interstate – what is the best way to pack them for shipping?
Thanks for all the help!
Z
Congrats on your upcoming wedding!! Never too early to start but you could probably wait a couple of months:-) Over time certain glues become less sticky, however we do keep our flowers for a while and they seem to last. Just keep them out of direct sunlight or extreme heat. Shipping is always tricky, we just had 2 employees drive 9 huge bouquets to Salt Lake City because shipping was going to be very expensive. But…. we do ship flowers all the time, we usually wire them down to the box and make sure there is a lot of air around so they don’t get crushed.

Thank you so much for your tutorial. I made the bouquet for my wedding in August, and I loved the way it turned out! 🙂
Yay that’s wonderful to hear! Congratulations 🙂
This may be a very dumb question but what exactly is letter weight paper? Like if I am searching on a site to purchase a team of paper what exactly am I looking for? I am relatively new to this and I previously stuck to only origami papers. So if I’m searching online what would be beat for this bouquet?
It’s not a dumb question 🙂 Letter weight is text weight paper, we usually buy anywhere from 24 to 60 lb text weight.
Hi this is exactly how I made my wedding bouquet 5 years ago and was lucky enough to have it shown in a craft magazine.
That’s wonderful! Which magazine?
I made these for my wedding and they turned out beautiful! Thank you!
I’m so happy to hear that Amy! If you want to share any photos, send them to hello@liagriffith.com 🙂

hi from east Indonesia! thanks for this beutifull tutorial. you got a magic hands! i love it ! 🙂
Thank you:-)
SUPER
Thank you!! 🙂
What would you recommend is used as the width/weight of the wire stalks? I’m hoping you use your stencil as a bouquet 🙂 i’ve bought thick wire but I’m worried it will be too thick to bend easily
I used 20 gauge wire for this bouquet and they were 12 inch pieces of wire. Best of luck!!
Hey Lia, gorgeous design, thank you! I have a few questions: The roses template has 6 pages, 2 for each color. This means if I print all 6 once, I get 3 roses? So I need to print them 6 times for 18 roses?
If I go to a copy print center to have them print all, it should be done in regular print paper? 80 – 100gsm? No photo paper or something else. Thanks!
Hi! Yes, print 6 copies of the PDF (remember to print front & back, so even though the PDF has 6 pages it only makes 3 flowers). Print on nice text weight paper, not cardstock. Have fun! 🙂

Can this file be uploaded to Cricut design space to be cut?
Yes it can. We have an SVG file just for that. You can find it a few places but for sure here: https://liagriffith.com/vintage-book-page-flowers/
Hey Lia, I don’t know if you’re still reading and responding to the comments on this thread, but I figured it’s worth a shot! I was wondering if you have a wedding invitation template that is the same color scheme as these flowers? I’m using this boquet for my wedding and would love invitations with the same colors.
Oh yes, we still read and respond. 😉 Here is a search for wedding invitations from our site. Maybe there is something there? https://liagriffith.com/?s=wedding+invitations%27&post_type=post

Hi,
I’m totally in love with your work and your website. I’d like to make this gorgeous bouquet for my wedding, but the quality of PDF is not very good. I read previous comments and you mentioned PDF shouldn’t be viewed in browser but downloaded directly. How can I do that? If I opened the link, the PDF was always shown in browser and even if I saved it on my computer and opened it there, the quality was not good. Any idea how could I download it directly to save the full quality?
Thank you for your help in advance!
Greetings from Slovenia
I just uploaded a higher resolution printable but it may take a minute to download. Remember that what you see in your browser may look different than what you will see when you download onto your computer and open as the PDF.
thanks for this! making this for my girlfriend this Valentines 🙂
So awesome! That will be very cute 🙂

Do you happen to have this in SVG files? I would like to make this using the cricut explore air.
thanks
Hi, I have the svg file in this post https://liagriffith.com/black-rose-paper-flower-bouquet/
Do you have the svg cut file for those leaves because the leaves in the svg file in the post is different.
Thanks.
Unfortunately I don’t have these leaves in an SVG, only the PDF
Hi Lia, I got married on 1st August and made lots of these flowers, EVERYONE commented on how gorgeous they were. I made a big shower bouquet for myself, 4 buttonholes and a bunch of 12 for my bridesmaid. My new husbands best man is getting married next year and his fiancee has fallen in love with these roses. I have strongly advised her to invest in a glue gun.
Congratulations and thank you for sharing pictures from your special day! The flowers look AMAZING! Had to share a few on our Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/liagriffith.hyl
I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU!!! for this free tutorial. I love crafts and wanted to make my own bouquet for my wedding. When I found this I was delighted, its was easy and looked great. I changed the colours slightly to match my colour scheme and modifies the underneath with large leaves. I made my own bouquet, two smaller ones for my bridesmaids and single roses for all the button holes which I made from a note my husband wrote to me when we got engaged. Your templates were perfect and the instructions were great. All the flowers looked AMAZING. I was so proud of them.
Thank you, thank you, thank you !!!!!
Thank you so much, love to hear stories like that:-)
Thank you Lia for all your freebies, they sure are great to get these days, for free!!!!!
Thank you so much:-)

where can i get the download or could you send it to me plz
You can download the pdf towards the end of the post. Happy crafting!
Congratulations! I would love to see pictures of your flowers. I’m glad I could help. 🙂
Hi Lia, quick question. If you skip putting the floral tape on the wires individually and just put it on the bouquet once assembled, does that look okay? Trying to avoid that extra step as I am making tons of these for my wedding! (Along with many of your other crafts!)
Thank you!
I think that would be fine as long as the stems don’t show much. 😉
Thank you! I actually ended up finding stems that are pre-wrapped at Michaels!
Yes, could look funny depending on the color you use but you could use one of the other rose templates on my site:-) https://liagriffith.com/mini-paper-rose-framed-artwork/ If you are cutting by hand you can just enlarge the pattern when you print it.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! You can definitely incorporate your own color scheme.
Thank you sooooooooooo much for sharing this. I’m about to make one for my wedding also in September. Btw, what kind of paper you used to make this gorgeus bouquet? God bless you 🙂
I used a regular printer paper with the watercolor wash printed on both sides. Love they way it looks so real.
[…] Check out Lia Griffith’s tutorial to make your own! […]
this is one of the easiest and beautiful diy flowers i’ve seen so far! im planning to do this for my wedding this December. is it possible to change the color of the flowers to my color motif?thanks!
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! We don’t do any custom changes for out templates since we give them away for free. Believe me I wish I had the time, but I get a lot of requests. You might be able to use the template from this flower, just enlarge it https://liagriffith.com/mini-paper-rose-framed-artwork/

These roses are beautiful
Thank you so much:-)
I’m making these for my friend’s wedding. I have a bunch printed out and have been cutting by hand, but I’m thinking about getting a cricut machine. Since I want to use the blush colored flowers and I already have them printed, is it possible to cut out what I already have printed with the cricut? If not, how would I be able to get the blush colored flowers using the cricut?
Yes, just insert the blush colored printed paper into the Cricut and off you go:-) Just in case you have missed it the Cricut Explore Air in Teal sold exclusively at Michaels comes with 22 of my projects pre-loaded 🙂
hi, love the bouquet, I just attempted my first rose and it was actually a lot easier then I thought it would be! I have 22 ga 18′ wire that I bought to use for hydrangeas and I had a really hard time working it for the rose, it kept bending and I accidently pulled it out of the center. Do you have a brand and/or thickness of wire you like to use on roses? Thanks so much I am in love with this site!
I like the 18 gage. The lower the number the thicker the wire is. So HAPPY to hear that you found it is easier than you though it would be.

Muchas gracias por la idea, es genial!
Thank you so much!
Hi Lia,
Your flowers are gorgeous. I have the cricut explore and wanted to purchase the hydrangeas and the watercolor roses. What do I size them in Design space? The hydrangeas template inserts into DS at 3.89” x2.43” (that’s including the leaves!) and the watercolor rose template inserts into DS at 3.31” x 2.4”. I can’t find anywhere that it tells me what to size them and these seem rather small 🙂
Thanks,
Tabatha
I am so happy that Cricut has updated their software so that with new designs they don’t need to be resized. Yay!! As for the hydrangeas and roses they are sized to fill a 8 1/2 x 11″ sheet.
These are beautiful!! Is there a way I can purchase this file for commercial use?
Hi, thanks for your kind comment. Unfortunately I am not selling my patterns for commercial use since I am working on a product line. You can use them for personal use only.
Hi , where I can get this paper? or where I can buy a bouquet? with a specific color so my daughter wants her quinceañera all roses and creciones I love for that day
Hi, the download on this post has a colored pattern to be printed on white text weight paper. If you want a different color look at this post https://liagriffith.com/diy-paper-rose-made-with-a-metallic-paper-long-stemmed-rose-tutorial/ I buy my paper from Paper-Papers but you can find it at other places like Paper Source etc. Just make sure you buy text weight paper, cardstock is too thick. Have fun!
Hi Lia, I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting this tutorial 🙂 I got married on Saturday and made my bouquet, table decorations and a buttonhole using these instructions, and everyone was so impressed! I loved the whole process from start to finish and found it so relaxing and rewarding – and the final results were beautiful! I will very happily send you some pictures if you would like to see! I’ll definitely be trying some more of your tutorials in the future 🙂
Best wishes and thanks again, Zanna
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so happy to hear that you found making paper flowers relaxing and rewarding. Couldn’t have said it better myself;-) I would love to see some pictures from your special day. (hello@liagriffith.com)
Thanks that’s good to know. Also, I noticed that you recommend text weight paper, I can’t seem to find any online (am in the UK so ordering from outside the UK would take too long), would regular printer paper work ok or is it too flimsy?
Text weight is obviously the ideal but yes you can try other types of paper too:-)
Hi Lia, I love this bouquet, it’s gorgeous and looks almost too easy to be true! I will possibly have a go at making this for my wedding in August, but I would like a teardrop bouquet really, is it possible to make a teardrop bouquet with these roses? And how would I go about doing it?
Yes you can. Once you have all of your roses made it is simply how you arrange them. Since the roses are on wire they are easy to move and shape.
Hi Lia,
I’m making the bridal bouquet for my friend’s wedding with your tutorial. I’m wondering how long you suggested the wire be initially. I see that you have it folded a few times. I’ve never done flower arranging before and I’m curious how long the stems should be for comfortable holding. I don’t want to have to start the whole thing over from scratch!!
Abigail
I would start out by having them long, easier to cut once you are done than trying to make them longer:-)

oh my goodness. these are so beautiful! I already have my bouquet ordered but I am going to have a go at this for bouquets for the Mums as it would be way more personal. Thank you so much!
Congratulations!! Awe, I feel honored to have some paper flowers included in your special day:)
Hi Lia,
LOVE this idea, and am ridiculously excited to make these for our wedding next year! When trying to download the link for these blush peach roses and leaves however, my computer doesn’t pull through!! Tried a couple times to end in disappointment. It’s not your website it’s my computer I think. Any way you could email it to me?
This is a very large file because of the watercolor images so I can’t email it to you. Can you try to download it from another computer and put it on a thumb drive?
I’m getting married in hawaii next year and I was looking for Hawaiian stuff to make? I need some ideas too. I’m getting married in October next year so we have eoungh time get it done too. Let me know what u fine in too. Send it to my email okay?

Hi Lia,
My friend has a Cricut Expression – I saw that the Cricut site has your rose template available for purchase, but I can’t seem to find a definitive answer on whether that will work on an older machine like the Expression (I don’t know very much about Cricut, if you couldn’t tell!)
Thank you!
Hi Hailey, I have never had a Cricut Expression, I have the Explorer, so I would suggest you contact Cricut’s customer service department. Thank you!!
Lisa, these are beautiful and just what I need to bring some life to my new apartment! I’ve been able to download the leaves but not the petals. Can you help me out?

Do i buy a template and then use my own card? Or do I order certain templates in certain colours? I want paper roses for my wedding and I need pale purple, blue and pink. For my bridesmaids. (not mixed colours but separate) And a mixture of those three colours and white for my bouquet. I just don’t know what to order. Your roses are beautiful
Hi Samantha, use a text weight paper not cardstock. Cardstock doesn’t fold as nicely. My favorite is metallic text weight from Paper-Papers.com. The template to print is free on my site. Your colors selection sounds lovely. Have fun and please share some pictures with us! Congratulations!
What length do you cut the wire pieces to for the stems?
Around 12 inches
Hi Lia! My family and friends are helping me make several hundred of your paper roses for my upcoming wedding, and I was wondering what you recommend on size of floral wire for the single stems and bouquets. Thank you!

Hi Lia!!!…Thank you so much for your quick response to my post. I cant wait for the cartridge from cricut to have your rose design. I hope that its really really soon, especially since my daughters party is right around the corner. I want to have a head start. I am planning on making 12 bouquets, each with at least 12-14 roses. Once again thank you, and can’t wait for more wonderful ideas from you!!!!
I will work on it for sure. 😉
I am anxiously awaiting the Paper Rose on the Cricut site also!
Soon! 😉
Hi Lia!! I own a Cricut explore and was wondering if your rose pattern is there now to cut with the machine instead of by hand? I want to be able to make a bunch of them for my daughter’s 4rd bday party. Her theme is sleeping beauty!! Hope to hear from you soon!! Love, love, love your paper roses!!

Lia, these are just beautiful!! I plan on using your design for my wedding bouquet in spring 2016. Would you please let me know if we could work out another color, like sterling (purple/silver) roses? I would appreciate a quote on other colors!
These are so, so beautiful. Thank you for the template! I’m excited to make them.
Yay!
I love your flower bouquets! We are going to try and make them for my daughters wedding! Where did you purchase the white vases you put the bouquets in after wedding? They look so nice!
That one is from West Elm a few years ago. It is actually a lantern with holes.
Yes, I did make one of the roses and want to make a whole arrangement of them for my Mother and for my dining room. I tried to use the PDF’s that you have on your site for the Cricut but, as you probably know, that doesn’t work. So I was hoping to find out how you did them. So, question is, will this rose pattern be part of what you say is being released in July?
Also, do you think that the subscription to Design Studio, or whatever it is called, is a good deal?
Yes! The rose watercolor printed rose will be released in July with Cricut. As well as the pattern ready to cut onto colored paper. I love the new Design Studio model in that you can buy one at a time as you use them or if you find that you buy a lot, the subscription price is really affordable. I guess I would say, see how much of the cut patterns you use and view it from there. They have a lot to choose from and it is fun to have access to the whole library of designs.
Lia–
Can this project be cut out on the Cricut? I was at your Saturday event and loved these flowers, but would like to cut them out on my machine instead of by hand. I am assuming that as many as you had at the Cricut PDX event that you did not cut them all out by hand.
By the way–fabulous time at your house!!!!!
Debby Lazarone
So happy you were here Debby! I wrote my first response thinking you were referring to the crepe rose. To answer. . . YES! These can be cut on a Cricut! I am not sure if you were able to make one of the roses I had the materials cut for, but it was the same pattern. In July when Cricut launches the “print to cut” there will be in their lineup too. Woo hoo!!
[…] paper flowers a luxe finish. It has been several years since I designed the rose pattern for the printed and metallic paper version that are quite easy to make and so popular for DIY weddings. I knew it […]
I was wondering what type of paper I should use to print the templates?
I print on a laser printer using the simple white laser paper in a text weight (not card stock). Since there is print on both sides, it will look gorgeous.
HI Lia Since I contacted you when I got my computer back I still haven’t been receiving your posts. I tried to subscribe again but it tells me I’m already subscribed. Help. I so want to get your wonderful posts again, miss them so much. Found this about the paper roses on 25+DIY Paper Blooms party. Had to save and print what I could, so gorgeous, will be printing the flowers out when I can get some color ink again. As usual I’m out no money due to paying for having pc repaired. Life goes on. Thanks for sharing your incredible talents.
Of all the blogs I missed yours was top of list. Happy week
Double check your spam to see if it is going into that box. If you are on the list then it is certainly sending out the emails. I missed you too!!! 😉
Lia,
I found your site via a pinterest post and am using your template to make flowers for my wedding, out of comic books 🙂 I started this weekend and I did not want to stop! I am not a crafty person but putting these flowers together was a great stress reliever. Our wedding is not until the fall of 2015 so I plan to do a few flowers a week until then. I was just wondering if you had ever used any sort of spray shellac or anything on the flowers you have made to help them to last. Thanks!
I loved seeing your comic book flower on Instagram! Thanks for tagging me so I got the notice. As I said there (for readers here to know), I have flowers that are over 3 years old and they still look great with no spray or other finish. I even live in wet Portland, Oregon. 🙂 Share more as you go. . . love watching your progress.

Hi Lia,
I am making this bouquet for a friends wedding and made my first paper rose last night, i found the first three petals a bit difficult to position and shape but the completed flowers look amazing!! can’t wait to finish the bouquet, my friend will absolutely love it! thank you so much for providing these resources for free. your website is wonderful!
Yes, the first three are the trickiest. Once you get that down the rest is a breeze. Share photos when you are done!
Hi. Is there any color for this wedding bouquet? Like Royal blue/Gold?
