Paper Flowers

I learnt how to create these paper flowers on a tutorial on YouTube, I really love them because the use of book paper adds a vintage feel to any sample. They add a 3D element to my work in textiles and in a other sample of mine I have added watercolour to the petals to make them pink and look more realistic. I love the sample I created in which I added the paper flowers, as I photocopied a section of my dress I designed and machine embroidered over it. The sample includes photos of my family and the rolled lace strips add to the vintage style.
