Step 1

Take your paper and cut the paper into strips using the paper trimmer. I cut my paper to be 1inch wide. I cut both the white and green card the same width.

Step 2

Start with the white card. Place some hot glue along the edge of the card. Then fold the card over and press the two sides together firmly. This will make you a small loop. Repeat this 8 times.

To make the centre of the paper daisy make a small pompom. I made my pompom orange. Start by wrapping the wool around your fingers.

Step 5

To make the paper chain, take a piece of the green card and make it into a loop using hot glue to secure it together. Place the next piece of card through the loop. Make a loop with that piece of card and secure the ends together with hot glue.
