Paper Flowers for the Holidays

Here are the instructions (from Perma Cultured's posts on Flickr. Check out her other images and ideas):

"1. Cut out paper circles and fold them in 8 (like a pizza pie slices)
2. Create a decorative edge by rounding off the slice end
3. Stack the paper circles in layers and glue together
That's it! You can add a gemstone sticker in the middle to add some sparkle to your flowers. Use double-sided tape or glue to attach the flowers to gift wrap or cards."

I too must try these. I've already "wrapped up" my girlfriend's Christmas present to be delivered tomorrow - in my first homemade box, thank you very much - but I could add one of these, I bet!
