paper poppies... try #1

Well, I attempted to make some paper poppies today. I saw them on the Martha Stewart site.

The first one was a little bit rough. I did not use her template, I kind of just made my own,  I made it smaller than what she recommended, but I still think they turned out too big. I think if I make the next bunch about half the size it would be perfect. Also, I don't like the center. I need to get better at fringing a circle. Oh well, its not as bad as it could have been. Here's a picture of the finished product.
