Icelandic poppies are a favorite bloom for both florists and paper flower artists. Though we have several versions of these flowers on our site, this new template for the petals and method for the poppy centers and poppy buds will add a new layer of realism. The template also includes a new poppy leaf to add to the stem of your finished flower.
Ready to get started?
You can find the templates and worksheet right here, as well as a complete list of tools and materials.
In our crepe paper Icelandic poppies workshop, I will teach you my latest techniques while using extra-fine crepe paper for the flowers, bud, and leaves. You can use the poppy flower kit with our updated template or collect your own selection of materials, which are listed here. I recommend using the extra-fine crepe paper for this flower to emulate the paper-thin petals of the live version.
Be sure to visit our entire crepe paper flower library and check out the playlist in our video library.

Back to the TopI simplified the flower center by using your wool felt balls in Juniper and wrapping with green embroidery thread , if that makes sense . Looks so good !
That sounds adorable!! We have a felt poppy that used that method for the center. I Love mixing mediums. 🙂
I’m making a bouquet of these for my wedding in June xx
Ohhh lovely!! You must send photos 🙂
As the Icelandic poppy kit was the first crepe paper flower I ever made, this holds a special place in my heart
Oh I just love that, Annie!
What size are the petals and leaves? Some templates resize themselves when I put them on my Scan’n’cut. – Thanks
Hi! The petals are about 3.6″ wide x 3.75″ tall, and leaves are 3.85″ tall.
