6.Brush Elmer’s craft glue around the circle.

7.Pour glitter into the flower “cup”. Let dry.

制作步骤：

1. 将彩色卡纸裁成15×15cm的正方形；

2. 对折两次得到1/4正方形；

3. 沿对角线折成三角形，沿开口方向减成半圆形；

4. 将折纸展开得到“花”形，用记号笔在中心画一个圆形并涂色；

5. 剪下一片花瓣，用胶棒将开口处的两片花瓣粘在一起；

6. 在圆形的周围涂上工艺胶；

7. 将闪光粉撒到“花芯”，静待胶水干燥；

8. 用同样的方法制作7朵纸花，将花展平，在花瓣上点点儿（如视频所示）；

9. 按照视频标注的方法将纸花相互粘在一起。注意：只在花瓣顶端涂抹胶水；

10. 在花束的边缘粘贴叶子；

11. 将另一张卡纸对折；

12. 将花束中部的花瓣粘贴在卡纸内侧。
