Difficulty: Simple - easy folds, edges need to be trimmed and folded to get a rose look. Has a flat base, easy to place it on table. I could have done better.
Paper Size: 8.5 inch square for above model
No glue/scissors required for this, Rose of Roses and Kawasaki Rose.
Difficulty: Easy , has a kawasaki like twist, I did this after kawasaki rose, felt fairly easy. Should modify after the final step to make it look like a rose, the better one modifies, the better it looks like a rose. Sturdy enough, not as sturdy as Kawasaki. Kawasaki folds are tight enough, won't come out easily even after a heavy throw.
Time: 30 min
Paper size:
The baby pink rose - 6 inch square
The dark pink rose - 8.5 inch square
I changed the blog appearance again for it is convenient to customize with default blogger template. The earlier template had not much options.
Check out the Gallery tab above, to view all the modeld in Google blogger dynamic view. Looks good :)
Kawasaki Rose
Did this on 22 June 2013.
Too many creases that are easy to make. I thought I might find Kawasaki twist a bit hard. When I tried it was not as difficult as I thought, it neatly got twisted.
One tip: While making creases before Kawasaki twist press it nice. I used my nail to press each of the crease. This might have made the Kawasaki twist easy.
After this the folds might get confusing, not impossible to figure out though. First time I folded 3 houses and I got stuck at 4th one, kept wondering where the flap must be folded, took few minutes to figure out.
Final model is very neat.
Reference: A very nice video by Marigami
First time (above photo)
Paper used: Color printer paper.
Paper size : 8.5 " x 8.5 "
Second time: (below photo)
Paper used: Scrap book Paper which is thicker than printer paper. I felt thicker paper works out well for this.
Paper size: 12 " x 12 "
***
No of sheets : one
Difficultly: might not be easy for beginner level. Intermediate I would say
Time : can finish in 1 hour. Second time I took lesser time.
I felt bigger size paper looks good.Sturdy model. My scrapbook sheet has lot of embroidery designs, the rose done out of this paper doesn't look that clear in photo.
I didn't use any glue or paper clip while making this rose.
What I like about such model is it requires just one sheet.
After the Kawasaki twist:
Kawasaki Rose: Not very clear in this scrap book sheet sue to the design.
