Let’s start your cute bouquet! Draw a simple flower with six rounded petals, like a little cloud with soft edges. This will be one of the cheerful flowers in your bouquet, so keep the lines nice and smooth.

Step 2: Add another flower next to it

Now draw a second flower shape just to the right of the first one. Make it the same size and style, with those cute rounded petals. Let them slightly overlap so they look like they’re snuggling together in your bouquet!

Step 3: Start the big flower in the middle

Draw a curved line between the two flowers to begin the petals of a larger bloom. Think of it like a wide “U” shape with soft edges, gently peeking out from behind the smaller flowers. This will help build a layered bouquet look!

Step 4: Extend the large flower’s petals

Continue drawing the large flower by adding two big, wavy petals on top. Let them curve outward gracefully, like butterfly wings, to give this bloom a more open and elegant look.

Step 5: Finish the large flower’s top petals

Add two more rounded petals above the previous ones to complete the large flower. Draw a soft line down the middle to separate them slightly, giving the bloom a full and layered appearance.

Step 6: Draw a small circle for the bow

Let’s start the cute bow for the bouquet! Draw a small circle below the flowers. This will be the center knot of the bow that ties everything together.

Step 7: Add the bow loops

Draw two rounded loops on each side of the small circle to form the bow’s shape. Make them look like cute little butterfly wings so the bow feels soft and cheerful!

Step 8: Draw the bow’s ribbon tails

Add two short, angled rectangles hanging down from the bow. These are the ribbon tails, and they’ll make your bouquet look like it’s tied up neatly and ready to give!

Step 9: Draw the wrapping for the bouquet

Now add the bouquet’s wrapping! Draw two slightly curved lines coming up from the bow, then connect them at the top with a soft curve. This creates the paper wrap that holds all the pretty flowers together.

Step 10: Add the flower stems

Draw a few straight lines from the flowers down into the wrapping. These are the stems peeking out, making your bouquet look fresh and full of life!

Step 11: Add a tiny flower on top

Draw a small, simple flower with four rounded petals on a thin stem coming from the large bloom. This adds a cute little accent that makes your bouquet feel extra cheerful and playful!

Step 12: Draw two leaves on the right

Add a pair of simple leaves near the right flower. Draw them as pointed ovals with a line in the middle for the vein. These little leaves will make your bouquet look fuller and more natural!

Step 13: Add another leaf and a stem

Draw one more leaf peeking out from behind the bow wrapping, plus a little stem above it. This helps balance the bouquet and makes it look nice and full!

Step 14: Draw more leaves around the bouquet

Add four more small leaves around the top and sides of your bouquet. Place two on the left and two on the right to make it look lush and full of greenery!

Step 15: Add happy faces to the flowers
