Lotus Blossom Origami

The majority of origami is folded from a single square of paper. This origami lotus blossom might be considered "modular origami" as it is constructed from 12 pieces of  pink paper and 4 pieces of green paper which are then folded together to form a single flower. Photos and video instructions for the blossom may be found here. In Asian religions, the lotus blossom is used as a symbol of purity. In ancient Egyptian culture, the lotus flower was associated with rebirth.
