2. Fold all four corners to the center.


3. Fold each of the four flaps to the opposite direction, leaving 1 cm. (you are creating the 'petals' of the sunflower). Turn the diagram over and you are finished with the 'flower' part.


4. With the white colored side of the green origami paper facing you, Fold it in half, creating a triangle. Then unfold.


5. Take the 2 corners on the sides, and fold them to the middle line (this is the crease you just made in step 4).


6. Fold both flaps once more to the middle again.


7. Then, take the pointed end and fold it to form a 45 degree angle. Turn the diagram over.


8. Glue the 'stem' and 'sunflower' to your card stock. It's best to use the glue stick.


9. Apply your favorite stamp on card and you are done! [optional]
