VIDEO: Using our NEW Frosted Paper to Make Flowers
Shine On
After seven years of creating frosted paper flowers, we are so excited to announce that we now have our own frosted craft paper! Text weight frosted paper is one of my favorite materials for making flowers. And since we use this paper all the time in our studio, we thought, why not come out with our own?
Along with announcing our new frosted paper packs, we are also sharing three free paper flower templates with video tutorials!

One of the things I love about frosted paper is the beautiful dimension and depth it gives to paper flowers. It’s lightweight, making it very easy to curl and shape, plus it gives your paper flowers a lovely iridescent look. Altogether we have six new color packs of frosted paper — berry, citrus, conifer, melon, stone fruit, and succulent.
To help you get crafting with our new frosted paper packs, we have some free flower templates for you today that you can download below. If you are using a cutting machine, you can download our SVG cut files. Or you can use our printable PDF templates to cut your flowers by hand.
In my video tutorials below I’ll show you which of our frosted paper colors I used to craft an anemone, daisy, and succulent. You can use the same colors or play around with different ones to see which ones you like best. Once you have cut all your pieces, I will show you how to curl your petals and assemble your flowers with hot glue.
Happy crafting! Let us know if you have any questions or feedback. And be sure to share your projects with us by using #MadeWithLia.

Back to the TopHi i bought anemone kit wanted add the minis in too wit the paper I got off your shop what setting is your frosted paper? is it less then 65 lbs? it feels light I don’t want to rip it. thanks!
Hi Tina! When cutting our frosted paper, we use a standard mat with a fine point blade set on the Copy Paper +more setting, or on the light card stock setting. It’s important to have a nice sharp blade and not over cut. A newer, clean mat is also recommended as anything left on your mat can make the paper tear also. In order to figure out the best setting for your machine, we recommend doing a test cut, a circle or star shape is the best, before starting!
Lia I just made a mini succulent from my frosted paper pack AND I have a question…it is extremely
a mini what would you make with such a tiny plant ? It is about the size of a silver dollar!
It would probably take lots of these for a planter….Thank you Patricia
What about a mini potted plant (https://liagriffith.com/paper-succulent-valentines/), or a terrarium using frosted paper https://liagriffith.com/diy-mini-terrarium-wedding-favors/?!
Hi, what material setting and mat should I use for the frosted paper on the Cricut Maker? I’ve tried shimmer paper and it does not work. I’m afraid to waste any more paper.
Hi Heather,
We use the copy paper setting for our frosted crepe paper. 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing these. I love your beautiful and realistic flowers and your video tutorials help to make them look as good (or close) as yours.
I have finally purchased a Cricut Maker, so now I can better utilize my membership. Had cutting so many pieces can be daunting!
