From Sarah in St Albans "Origami lily with stem - Found this site while looking for origami flowers as an idea for wedding decorations. The paper coloring resembled a tiger lily so I added some freckles with a black marker to add to the effect. Unfortunately I didn't have two greens the same size and color."
