I was inspired by this Scandinavian Floral Vase I have that you can see in my email signature box. I decided to create a set of wall art cut files that work great by themselves or with a paper flower arrangement shadow box.
Most people think the picture of my vase is wall art but its actually the top of a vase I bought from a home decor store in Stockholm.
This inspired me to actually make an art piece. I ended up making 3 pieces in this geometric wall art series. These are all free and available in my resource library.

Recommended Materials for Geometric Wall Art
Cardstock – I used a variety of different cardstock for this project. My favorite is the shimmer metallic one. The glossy one is from the Recollections foiled cardstock collection. My only recommendation is to not used textured cardstock. Textured cardstock is harder to cut intricate designs and has a white core that frays.
Best deals on my favorite cardstock:
- Recollections 65lb Cardstock from Michaels
- Metallic Shimmer Assorted Set from Amazon
- Neenah Collections Assorted Set from Amazon
- Kraft Cardstock from Michaels
Cutting Machine – I use a Cricut. Check out my recommendations for Cricut machines and accessories for beginners for more info.
Templates – Both the geometric series and the rolled rose are available in my resource library.
A Few Tips on Making Rolled Roses
Start with the outer edge using tweezers or a quilling tool.
Hold the core down into the base circle with glue for about 15 seconds and it will set.
For a more “rounded” flower, I like to pinch the petals as I am rolling.

Is the geometric template still in the resource library? I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
Hi there! Thank you for the catch, I somehow dropped the file a while back when I was making edits. It is now the first thing in the home decor section in my resource library.
