Bon jour~

I bet you're all wondering what's this project about. As stated in the description at the
side panel of this blog, it's basically creating flowers in any form of shapes and sizes using
paper (and any colour to that matter). As an end product, the paper flowers contributed by
you (yes, YOU, the little people in the audience) would be included in the major artwork.


The purpose of this project is to show your own creativity and individuality (how you
interpret an object from reality into an artwork of your own).


So, if you're interested, please send your paper flowers through mail (contact me for the
postal address) or you could just email me the picture. All participants would be credited;
please include your name as well.

P/s: There's no limit to how many paper flowers you could contribute, so get your scissors
and glue ready and let's bloom some flowers shall we?

** Please Recycle all the unused papers.

Deadline for submission :

UK - 30th January 2010 15th February 2010
All over the world - 15th January 2010 (due to postal delivery) 30th January 2010

How did you AWESOME people heard about this project?

I made a simple flower by using crepe paper and just wrapping it around and taping it at the bottom to secure it.

Dalmatian Flower

I received this today and what can I say? SURPRISED!!! *Smiles widely* Don't worry
Krister, it's lovely! I really like it! Though, there's absolutely no favoritism to every
flower I receive. I L-O-V-E all the flowers been given to me. So don't be embarrassed.
*winks*

I like to call this the Dalmatian flower.

The result of the 1st event









It was a (sort of) successful 1st trial event for the project. I was glad that everyone
enjoyed their time cutting and gluing papers together. It looked like they were
all in Kindy doing arts and craft. And the expression on their FACES! Oh, I can't
forget it! Thank you to those who participated that night, and again, thank you to
the President of BruBradSS, Zaini Junidi, for letting me host the event. You've all
shown me how diverse everyone is in terms of creativity. WELL DONE!

Postcard Flower

Currently, I've just finished the prototype for the postcard flower.







Now, all I need is to design the postcard itself ^_^ .

P/s: I'm planning to create a video tutorial for one of the flowers from the previous entry.
I'll post it up as soon as I can get my hands on a tripod.

Like a Child with a Paper

I can assure you that there's no pressure in this project =)

It's simply like giving paper to a child and asking that child to make a paper flower. It's about creativity and how you perceive things. It doesn't have to be beautiful; it could even be
abstract! Wow me with your marvelous works of art and just let go of any doubts. It's not
a contest and by all means, it wouldn't even be judge. It's your individuality that matters ;)
