Step 4Make the petal
This part is made much like the center, except that you don't wrap the other colors all the way around. I don't have a lot of process pictures for this, but you can see me doing it really really fast in the video!
Again, start by rolling your central color into a tube. Flatten the next color into a sheet, but have it thicker in the middle and tapering towards the edges. Wrap that about 3/4 of the way around the central tube. Repeat with your other colors, and then wrap the whole thing about 7/8 of the way around with a thin, flat sheet of the background color.
I like to add a little spike in the center, to make it look more like a flower. Cut all the way through the petal from front to back and insert a wedge of a high contrast color (I used black).
