Paper Flowers
These paper flowers look like they'd be really difficult to make, but they are really quite easy and make a stunning embellishment for a mini scrapbook, or the front for a greeting card.
Fold each circle in half. 
Open circle back up and flip over. Fold each bottom corner to the center, creating a point as shown. 
Flip over to the other side again and fold each side up to the center fold. 
Do this with all 11 petals. 
Starting with one petal, glue onto a nice contrasting cardstock or scrapbook paper. Glue the second petal close to the first, being careful to lift the little flap to press the edges close together. 
Continue in this manner until you have all the petals on the page in a circle. 
Place a button, a bead, or an eyelet in the center of the flower to finish it off.
