I will most likely be making my own paper flowers for our 8-bit Cocktail Party. The other day I took some time to see what I could make and made some. I took step by step photos of what I did do. I don't recall where I found the tutorials to make them, but here they are:
 |
| First I got started by Cutting out several 3in by 3in squares, you'll need 5. |
 |
| Take one of the squares to work with. |
 |
| Fold that paper in half point to point, making a triangular shape |
 |
| Fold the corners up to the top corner |
 |
| Fold these flaps back over the other way, so that the edges are even to the outside edge. |
 |
| Open up flaps you just made, and pull the folds open so that it looks like this |
 |
| Fold the single corners sicking up, down so that they are even with the outer edge |
 |
| Fold the creases shut |
 |
| fold and glue the flaps like this |
 |
| Repeat this with 4 more square of paper. I clipped mine so that the glue would hold as it dried |
 |
| Glue each of the 5 "Petals" together at their centers. |
