Basic Flower Making

 Tutorial: Making Flowers With Punched or Die Cut Shapes

This tutorial is how I learned to make flowers. They don't require a lot of specialty supplies and they will be small enough to add to your cards. Even if you don't have the specific punch mentioned, you can cut your petals with the same basic shaped dies.

The tutorial shows how to make your basic rose, using a heart punch (or die) but the post also has links to the following flowers you can make using a heart shape:
