One of the very first flowers I ever made almost 9+ years ago was a paper rose. Since then, I have created and perfected well over a dozen giant roses and small paper roses combined.
While I am no stranger to giant paper roses, (this free Cami rose has gone viral!) I decided that it was time to construct a new rose center – a spiral rose center to be exact!
This is one of the few times in my crafty career I can say that my flower turned out better then I planned! In fact, when I released first look photos and video you guys went totally nuts for it! And I’m so glad you all love it!
So today I am posting here my full supply list for creating this beauty, known as Ella Rose (named for my daughter) as well as my full video tutorial below.
How to Make Ella Style Paper Roses
Supplies
- 50-65 pound cardstock. I love this brand here and here.
- Scissors or cutting machine. Cricut makes this job much easier!
- Glue gun
- Wood dowel for curling the petals
- Ella style paper rose templates – find them here or shop here on Etsy

You will need to cut out the follow number of petals. You can hand cut with the printable PDF files or use the SVG cut files with a cutting machine.
The beauty of this new rose design is that you can follow this same petal count no matter if you make the XL, L, M or S rose templates! And all 4 size templates are included in the set!
Cut out 12 center petals, 15 base petals, 1 small center base, 1 larger base. And for the amendment to a fuller rose cut 10 more base petals.
Once you get your petals cut out scroll down and click play to watch the full video tutorial!
