With just simple foam cutting and a little creativity to form a two-layer flower shape on a cardstock base, you'll easily make a beautiful 3D rose card for International Women's Day. Let's explore how to make it!

Materials:

• White cardstock for the card
• Thin wallpaper with floral patterns
• Scissors, scalloped scissors

Instructions:

• Step 1: Cut the wallpaper into floral patterns and glue them onto the card. Smooth out the paper to ensure it adheres evenly.
  
• Step 2: Cut around one of the flower patterns you pasted on the card. For the second flower, cut its components into separate parts, such as the pistil, petals, leaves, and stem. Attach thick foam behind the flower's pistil and thinner foam behind the petals.
  
• Step 3: Cut the card base into a rectangle and add a green border around it. Stick the complete flower in the center of the card.

Attach the leaves at the edges to align with the floral pattern. Finally, glue the card base onto a folded rectangular card.
  
• Step 4: Use scissors to create scalloped edges for two strips of paper, one white and one green. Attach the white strip on top of the green strip. Tie a ribbon and affix it with double-sided tape to the top of the white strip. Then, glue the two decorated strips onto the flower card base.

Feel free to get creative by using other types of flowers instead of roses. Just make sure to choose two matching floral patterns for the perfect layering effect. Show off your crafting skills with this easy and beautiful Women's Day card design!

• Step 4: Now, repeat the same process for the green strips. Make teardrop shapes with the green paper for leaves. These should be slightly larger than the red ones, and press both ends flat to create a wavy effect.
  
• Step 5: Finally, prepare a rectangular piece of cardstock, fold it in half, and start gluing your quilled pieces to the card. You can arrange the petals and leaves however you like. Add the heart-shaped quills to the sides and write a personal message or the name of the recipient in the center.

Two small white flowers made from silk ribbons can truly bring your card to life. This is definitely a fantastic gift idea for the special women in your life this 8/3!

Materials:

• Silk ribbons of various sizes and colors: 1.5 cm wide yellow ribbon, 2.5 cm white ribbon, and 0.2 cm green ribbon
• Small green chiffon ribbon for bows
• Large card stock, 3 times the size of the final card
• Cutter, ruler, glue, scissors, etc.

Instructions:

• Step 1: Cut a 3 cm piece of the 1.5 cm yellow silk ribbon. Apply a little glue to the top edge of the ribbon, then roll it diagonally. Secure it with glue to form the flower’s pistil.
  
• Step 2: Cut an 11 cm piece of 2.5 cm white ribbon, fold it in half to create a crease, then fold both ends of the ribbon down towards the center. Cut the right side of the ribbon diagonally, leaving about 2 mm from the edge. Attach the pistil to the center of this piece. Fold the right side of the flower petal upwards at the cut edge, then wrap the left side over the right, following the diagonal fold. Secure the back of the petal with glue.
  
• Step 3: To create the calyx and stem, cut a small 0.5 cm green ribbon and wrap it around the end of the petals 2-3 times. Afterward, cut off the excess ribbon and glue a longer green ribbon underneath to form the flower’s stem.
  
• Step 4: For the card, cut a large piece of card stock, three times the size of the desired card. Use a cutter to create a dividing line at the center of the card, and fold the two outer sections inward. Cut out a small window in the middle section of the card to create a space for the flowers. You can decorate the edges of the window with decorative lines. Then, place the two flower blossoms inside the window, securing them with glue and trimming any excess ribbon.
  
• Step 5: Finally, use double-sided tape to attach one side of the card to create a support, and tie a small bow with green ribbon to decorate a corner of the card. Your ribbon flower card is now ready!

• Small wooden sticks or toothpicks
• White glue

Instructions:

• Step 1: Cut the black and pink paper into long strips, approximately 5mm wide. First, sketch out the design you want to create on the card. Gently curve the black paper strips to form the tree trunk and branches. Once done, glue them firmly onto the cardstock.
  
• Step 2: Continue gluing paper to form the tree branches, and bend the pink strips to outline the shape of hearts. Attach these heart shapes to the branches, making sure they are closely arranged.
  
• Step 3: Roll the pink paper strips tightly around the toothpicks or small sticks until you reach the desired thickness.
  
• Step 4: Once the rolls are complete, apply a little white glue to secure them in place. Next, glue the rolled paper into the heart shapes to fill them. Cut more black paper strips and glue them vertically along the branches and trunk to simulate a wood texture. And that's it—your card is ready!
