Origami Rosettes

These beautiful flowers are from Tomoko Fuse's book, Origami Rosettes, ISBN 9784416309131.

I folded each Rosette with an octagon that I cut from a 12" (300 mm) square of scrapbook paper.

Lately, I've been folding a lot with scrapbook paper, particularly for decorative models, as there are a lot of patterns available to choose from.  It's important to select the papers that are relatively thin (not the card stock type). Most of them fold very well, with no cracking, but you need to test them first.
