Green is required for the stems, and the rest is your choice – Flower buds will be made from them. You also need to prepare the glue. This is how we make a bud. Take colored paper and cut out a square from it. Fold diagonally. We bend the bottom edges of the resulting triangle upward, as shown in the diagram. We do the same with the remaining buds. If your bouquet consists of three flowers, then there should be three buds. Now we make a leaf from green paper, also guided by the diagram provided. We roll the stem itself from green paper into a rectangular shape, folding it several times. When all the parts are ready, glue the buds and leaves to the stems. At the bottom, the stems can also be glued together so that the bouquet does not fall apart.Card base, thick paper or cardboardblue, fold in half. And from the fold side we make two horizontal cuts. We make the first cut at the bottom of the postcard, departing from its edge about 2-3 cm. The length of the cut is about 2 cm. These cuts should cover the two halves of the postcard. We make the next cut 5 cm higher than the previous one, 4 cm wide. Now opens the card, and in the places of the cuts we form a vase into which we insert and fix the bouquet with glue.
