Paper lotus

This flower used fundamentally the same technique as the paper roses. However, inspired by some fabric lotuses I saw in a craft store, I decided to use a different petal shape and arrangement to create a lotus rather than a rose. I also tried out the idea of a color gradient flower, in this case with blue in the center and purple on the outermost petals.




The finished product.

From the side!

In a vase!
