"Hi! I am Michael Webb on behalf of Expert Village.com. Right now we are going to make the flower for the stem that we just made.

You are going to take your top edge and you are going to fold it down until this side meets your crease; and you want to crease that and you are going to do the same with your bottom.

Now you want to flip the whole thing upside down and open up just your bottom petals right there and bring them up to the top so that the inner section of these two comes just right underneath that point; and your going to flip it over and just do the same with that and bring it a little lower, so that you can see there you have got five points. Now flip it over again and take your edges here and bring them up, until you have a point down on the bottom of your flower. Now taking a pair of scissors you are going to want to just cut that bottom piece off; and you can kind of use one edge of your scissors here and open it up a bit; and then you are going to take the stem that we just made and you are just going to insert it right into that flower. There you have a stem and a flower. "
