Lovely Lilies
This lovely Easter lily flower is an absolute show stopper and jaw dropper. We love how it has such realistic dimension and depth to its petals and leaves. This is the perfect flower to display in your home for Spring. To create your own, download the FREE SVG or PDF files below, then cut. Finally, follow along with our photo tutorial on Paper Papers website to learn how to assemble your potted Easter lily flower.
For this gorgeous Easter lily flower we used Paper Papers metallic text weight paper. We are absolutely in love with this paper for floral paper crafting! It’s offers the perfect thickness to remain firm yet malleable and the perfect touch of elegant shimmer. We also used one of Paper Papers French Pop Tones because it has a beautiful hue that complements so many of our projects. Plus with fun names like “Jelly Bean Green” it really makes crafting a delight. To discover your own perfect shade, browse Paper Papers wide selection here.

Do you think I could use this SVG to make them with felt?
We would likely design a felt pattern differently but you can certainly give it a try!

These are beautiful! I’d like to make them to use at church for Easter next year. Is there a specific type of paint that you used for the stamen/anthers & pistil/stigma of the Lily? Instructions only say to paint them yellow & white (respectively).
We just use acrylic craft paint!
What a gorgeous lilly! But I coudn’t find a photo tutorial by following the link you’ve mentioned.
Oops! Thanks for catching that– it’s there now 🙂
