Lollipop flowers

 

Use Lawn Fawn's Reveal Wheel flower add on dies to make these cute little lollipop gifts



With Easter coming up, I thought these would make lovely little gifts. You can easily make a few to create a flowerpot of flowers.

I bought a packet of lollipops from my local cheap store. I've made two types of flowers, one on round lollipops and another sort on flat lollipops.  I'll show you how to make the basic lollipop flowers below and then you can decorate them to your hearts content.

Follow the below link to find out how the flowers were made

You will need
  • Small amounts of white and coloured card
  • Reveal Wheel Circle Add on Flower and Sun die set by Lawn Fawn
  • Reveal Wheel Tulip Add-On die set by Lawn Fawn
  • Glue
  • Lollipop's
  • Die cutting machine

To make the basic round lollipop flower:
  1. Die cut 3 flowers from the Reveal Wheel Circle Add on Flower and Sun die set from white card

  2. Die cut two leaves from the Reveal Wheel Tulip Add-on die set from green card
    Cut 3 flower heads and two leaves


  3. Put a small amount of glue on the back of two adjacent petals of one of the die cut flowers
    Put glue on the back of two adjacent petals of one flower


  4. Stick another flower to it. Let the glue dry a little then bend the flowers apart from each other.  The lollipop will go in between the two flowers.
    Stick another flower to the first one

    The lollipop will sit in between the two flowers


  5. Put a small amount of glue on the back of the petals as shown in the below photo with the black arrows. Put glue on both flowers, then stick the third flower to these two flowers to form a cover for the lollipop. You may have to hold it for a short while, whilst the glue dries.
    Put glue on two adjacent petals of the two flowers opposite each other

    Stick the third flower to the other two to encase the lollipop

    The 3 flowers create a triangle shape around the lollipop

    The round lollipop shows through the centre hole of each flower


  6. Put glue on the back of one of the leaves. Stick it to the lollipop stick and then stick the other leaf to the back of it encasing part of the lollipop stick
    Put glue on the back of one set of leaves

    Stick the leaf to the lollipop stick

    Stick the second leaf to the back of the first leaf encasing the lollipop stick



To make the flat lollipop flower:

  1. Die cut one flower from yellow card

  2. Put a small line of glue around the back of the flower centre circle hole and place it on the lollipop wrapper
    Put a small line of glue around the central hole of the flower


  3. Die cut one leaf from green card and glue it to the lollipop stick
    Stick the flower head and leaf to the flat lollipop



You can make all different colour flowers and use different colour lollipops for the centres. You can then start to add extra decorations such as stamped, coloured and cut out butterflies or little gems.

Added a stamped, coloured and cut out butterfly to the lollipop

I've glued a metal butterfly to one of the flowers



I put a piece of polystyrene into a flower pot and covered with brown tissue paper. The lollipop flowers can be pushed into the polystyrene to create a flowerpot of flowers.
