Create Flowers with Paper Ruffles

Do you have some paper ruffles or strips of tissue papers lying around and you don't know what to do with them? In my guest designing kit this month, I've received a pack of pink paper ruffles. It's kind of a machine stitched strips of tissue papers. I want to create something out of it.
I've rolled or twisted the paper ruffles in circles and when it gets to the size that you want, simply just cut the end off and fold the bottom half of the flower up. Later, slowly open up the flower from the middle. Isn't this easy? Try it!
(Tip: if you don't have any paper ruffles, simply just cut some strips of paper tissue and use a sewing machine to stitch along the middle of the strip.)
