    The templatesfor single petals, continuous petals, and

    leaveson these pages are used to create the flowers shown inMaking Crepe-Paper Flowers, pages 114 to 126. Position the

    templates on the crepe paper so that the papers ridges run the

    length of the petal or leaf; this allows you to pull the ridges

    open when cupping the crepe-paper shape and gives it proper

    body and support. Crepe paper comes in folds (a sheet or

    more that has been folded over to a narrower width). For con-

    tinuous strips, cut off a prefolded piece as tall as the template,

    and place the template on top of the prefolded paper, bottom

    edges aligning; you can cut through up to nine layers at once.

    Use these templates to cut individual petals for the flowers shown on

    page 116. Photocopy them at 133 percent. For multiple petals, fold

    paper accordion-style so you can cut through several layers at once.

    Use these templates to make the flowers shown on page 118. Photo-

    copy them at 200 percent. First cut the prefolded crepe paper to

    the height of the enlarged template. Lay template on top, aligning

    dotted edge of template with bottom edge of paper, and cut along

    the solid lines to create petals; do not cut all the way down the paperat the folds, but leave petals attached in a continuous strip. (The

    jagged top edge of ca rnation petals can be cut w ith pinking s hears .)

    Use these templates to make crepe-paper leaves. Photocopy them

    at 133 percent. For the grassy leaves, cut paper to the size indicated,

    fold it accordion-style to width of enlarged template; lay template on

    top, aligning dotted edge of template with bottom edge of paper, and

    cut along solid lines to create spiky grass; do not cut all the way down

    the paper at the folds, but leave it attached in a continuous strip.
