Basket of Tulips
Tulips: (make 2)- glue one end of a 6" length of narrow lavender paper to one end of a 1" length of narrow purple paper. Start rolling form the lavender end and make a teardro shape (6). Glue 2 teardrops side by side and add one to the top as pictured.
Leaves: (make 4) using spring green narrow paper, make a 3/4" loop and wrap the paper around making the next loop slightly larger than the last one and glue to a short length of spring green paper for the stems, and glue these to the tulips.
Basket: Roll nineteen 2" C scrolls. Fill in the backet as shown. The first and second roll should have 5, the third roll -4, 4th row 3, and fifth row 2. Glue each together and place each row on top of the other. Roll four 1 1/2" lengths of narrow 1/16" spring green paper into spirals and glue on top of the basket for the grass.
Handle: Roll a spiral using one 9" length of yellow narrow 1/16" paper and one 9" lenght of narrow 1/16" purple paper. Glue one end of the papers together before they are rolled. Glue the other ends together as you finish rolling so the two papers will stay together. Glue to basket.
Bow: make 2 loops out of short lengths of yellow and purple paper stacked on top of one another and glue together to form a bow shape, add a small square piece to the center. Add lengths of purple and yellow paper for the streamers and cut the ends to mak a upside down V shape. Glue the bow to the top of the handle as pictured.
Assembly: Glue the basket to a card and arrange tulips inside as shown.
