Now that I finish sinking all my points for my petal folds, what we're going to do is we're going to take this piece here. We're just going to take it and flip it over one. Actually, flip this side over. This is called a minor miracle. It's just a simple fold. I don't know why they give it that name. Anyway, we're going to take this top piece and fold it like so kind of giving it a 90 degree angle here. What this is going to do is this is going to allow us to spread the leaves finally so this flower can start taking shape. I'm going to take and I'm just going to lay it down from that edge there like so. Since this leaf is the first one that actually forms, I'll bring it down. The next leaf will be this one. I want to try and keep these pieces here together as possible as much as possible. As we bring it down, you're going to have to kind of force it just a little bit. Not too much. We don't want to rip our paper. Little bend up here that I don't need. This is where everything is going to start right here.
