Step: 2







First take the yellow sheet, measure and mark it 6*6 inches and cut the squares.
Next take the pink sheet, measure and mark it 5*5 inches and cut the squares.
Here i have taken 8 yellow squares and 8 pink squares.

Take one pink square and apply glue on the four sides. Turn it and place at the center on the yellow square.
Press gently on all the sides.
Repeat the process for the rest of them.
Let them dry for sometime.

Step: 3







Take one square and keep yellow part on the top. Make a cylindrical shaped roll by joining the two opposite edges and pin it with the stapler. Repeat the process and make 8 rolls like this.

Step: 4







Take 2 green sheets. Apply glue at one edge and attach them.
If you have a big chart, measure and mark it with 7*20 inches and cut it. Then you can skip this step.

Step: 5







Take one roll, apply some glue and place it on the sheet. Do like this with all the rolls. Place the rolls on the sheet as much close as u can and staple the two sides. Make sure you have at least half inch space on the bottom after placing the rolls. Let it dry for sometime.

Step: 6







With the punching machine make these pink and green flowers.
Apply glue to them and place green on the center, pink on the sides. These flowers cover the stapler pins.

Step: 7








Take the pink sheet and cut into half inch strips. Apply glue on the bottom of the green sheet and place the strips.







Take the 3 colored tissue papers and cut into half inch size. Apply glue on the pink strip and stick these tissue papers to it (Red yellow Green......). On top of them place one more pink strip. Leave it like that for some time to dry completely.

Step: 8




Now we will make a roll by attaching two edges with the glue. Press it gently. 
If needed staple on the two sides.






Step: 9




Once you are done with the roll, attach the thread to it as shown in the picture with the glue or stapler..
