i have last week completeted the difficult kawsaki rose which for a beginner was very difficult. Anyways i would like suggestions on what color to make my bouquet and how to arrange them and what mateiral to use on the stem leaves and so etc. And would color printing paper be enough for a real looking effect.

Printer paper is generally devoid of varience, personality, texture and thin fragility.
Many other papers might be more realistic.
Take a look at the Sticky, Diagrams & Crease patterns section of this forum, for Roses FAQ .
Oftentimes, the choosing of paper is more difficult than the actual folding.

I made some Kawasaki bouquets for my wedding last year.
They were made of a styrofoam ball with a dowel rod in them.
The roses had toothpick ends hot-glued on them and those stuck in the styrofoam.
The balls were all painted the rose color beforehand so you didn't see white styrofoam showing.
The dowel rod had ribbon wrapped around it. I didn't use leaves or stems but they came out pretty nice looking.
The paper I used was from a local art supply store, Ingres Fabbriano paper that had a nice texture to it. Large sheets which all had to be cut down.

I don't mean to hijack the thread, I was just showing my interpretation of a Kawasaki bouquet and that's the only picture that has all of them in the same place. I posted about the wedding stuff last year at
this thread.

I just went to a craft store with paper for scrapbooking and grabbed a red textured piece. Good thing folds don't have to be exact and you don't have to crease hard.
Eaglehorns roses look like they got to many petals, are they new kawasaki roses?
Oh and if you fold it so that it doesn't sink in in the middle but you have the square middle popped up, like an outy belly button then you can twist the middle and get a nice effect.
