New Year Rosettes

Ring in 2026 with a festive handmade touch!  Judy here with  a New Year Rosettes project for CutCardStock.These are a fun and elegant way to add sparkle to your holiday décor.  You can use them as table centerpieces, party picks, or photo-prop accents. Created with shimmering metallic cardstock and layered rosettes from CutCardStock, this project brings together all the glitz and glamour we love about New Year’s Eve.

Materials

DCS Gold Glitter Heavyweight Cardstock

Bright Foil 10 pt Silver Cardstock

Stardream Metallic Onyx 105 lb CardStock

Patterned Papers

Circle, word & number dies

Firework stamps, Versamark, embossing powder

Score board

Glue, low temp glue gun & glue sticks, double sided tape

Dowels

Die Cutting

Die cut circles, 1 large and 1 medium size using Gold Glitter, Silver and Black cardstock.

Rosettes

Cut 3 strips of 1 3/4 x 12 inch pattern paper for each rosette.

Score every 1/2 inch along the 12 inch side of each strip. Accordion fold. 

Cut 2 small circles for each rosette.

Assemble

Adhere 3 strips end to end with double sided tape to form a circle. Squeeze the circle together tightly and glue small circle to center on each side.

Add Embellishments to the medium size circles. 

Adhere the rosette pieces to the large circles. Layer the medium size, embellished circles over the rosettes. 

Glue dowels to each rosette.

Each rosette features its own celebratory element—fireworks, glittered accents, and a bold “2026”—all anchored in a small arrangement that’s easy to customize for your own party theme or color palette.

Rosettes are one of my favorite projects because they look impressively detailed but are incredibly beginner-friendly. Once you get the hang of scoring, folding, and assembling the layers, you can mix and match shapes, textures, and sentiments to create endless variations.

Whether you’re hosting a big celebration or keeping things cozy at home, these New Year Rosettes are a charming way to welcome a fresh start. Cheers to creativity, sparkle, and a fabulous year ahead!
