Admitted the colours of paper weren't exactly complementary nor matching (esp. the green!) ... was experimenting with technique rather tha design. So reached out to whatever scrap that was in my box.
An especially pleased with how home-made 3-D 'sakura' flower made out of small cut circles folded and pasted together to form patels. Base patels would have to be made out of thicker paper - of manila card thickness - 120-150gsm (?) mixed with thin pattern paper petals. I imagine the flower would probably turn out even beautifully if those thick designer pattern papers were used. And more petals too, to give it that 'fuller' look.
As for the vines .. they made out of beads an wiring. :) Twirled over pencil to give it that 'twist'.
As for piece with pink flowers and pink bordering - i was experimenting chiefly with layering of papers ... and the use of broad paper ribbons - what were cut up and used as frames.
