Washi Flower

The flowers were created using Spellbinder Shapeabilities but you could use any of the various shape cutting tools or cut the shapes freehand. The leaves the same way. You can select papers in various colors and patterns for the petals and the leaves. A piece of yarn or mizuhiki cord can be used for the stem. These flower parts were then layered onto a background paper with a variety of styles of Asian calligraphy.
