Make your own doodle flowers
They are easy and fun to make and you can also decorate your scrapbook pages with them.
I hope you will have fun following my instructions.
What you need
Flower punch
Of course it's not necessary - but it's really nice to have one.
You don't have a flower punch?
But don't cut the flowers before you are start with the drawing. It's better to draw first, cut and maybe redraw the outline if you cut away a bit from it.
Things you may want to have
But I only use it for thin paper.
Let's start with outline images

Grey outlines - change them to a size of your choice, print them and redraw them with a black pen.
You will add pattern and details to the flowers by hand. So I think it will look better if the outlines are drawn by hand to.
It's just a small detail, but I think it will make a difference.
The same outlines - black

If you don't want to redraw the outlines - use this image, resize and print it.
Start with a flower

I am drawing my flower digitally, because it's quicker for me to make the images :)
Nevertheless they are "hand drawn", because I am drawing them with a pen on a Wacom Cintiq tablet.
On this image the flower has the digital outline.
First simple details

On these images, I added the first simple details.
If you try yourself, don't try to be very accurate. We don't want to imitate a computer generated image here :)
And more details

Always start very simple and then add more and more details :)
As you can see....
I really don't try to be very accurate :)
More small details

I added more little details to the flower.
And I think it it enough now :) I like the flower as it is and I don't want to fill it with pattern.
How it looks like on colorful paper

Try to draw a flower on colorful paper.
It looks really nice too.
Have fun :)

Have fun making beautiful flowers :)
