There is a lot of warmth in the bouquet,
They are alive, these beautiful flowers...
By creating a three-dimensional application, we visually get a picture large size. It looks beautiful, unusual and advantageous!
And anyone will love creating such beauty with their own hands! Therefore, a volumetric paper applique will be for you exciting activity. Characteristic convexity in volumetric applique are seeking in different ways. You can use paper sheets folded like an accordion several times, you can use double-sided tape. Volume can be ensured by rolling the paper into tubes and gluing the cut paper in layers. We will squeeze out the paper and paste it over the edges.
For voluminous paper applications, you can, of course, use regular landscape sheets. It can be used for background or small elements. It is better to cut out the main parts from thick textured paper or cardboard. Paper of such density, even glued on top of each other, will already give correct effect.
First, draw a pattern of flowers and leaves on paper
Volume application for kindergarten, for elementary school.
■ Colored paper different colors, cardboard or thick paper (for the base)

Advice. You can use ready-made quilling strips as strips
3. Arrange the petals (loops) in a circle so that they form the shape of a flower and glue them to the main background. The bases of the petals should connect at one point (the center of the flower).
4. By analogy, we make several more colors (for example, 3) from paper of other colors and glue them to the background
Flowers must be glued at different levels.

From green paper cut out 7 strips 1 cm wide and 20 cm long and 3-5 strips in size (1 cm wide and 12 cm long).
6. Glue long strips of stems to the flowers.
7. Glue together leaf loops from the remaining strips and glue the leaves to the base of the stem.
8. Flowers need to cut out the cores. To do this, choose yellow paper 2 different shades. From one paper we cut out 4 circles (depending on the number of your flowers) with a diameter of 2 cm and from another 4 small circles with a diameter of 1.5 cm. Glue the small circles onto the large ones. The cores are ready.
9. Glue the centers to the flowers, and our applique is ready.
