 I had this brilliant idea of doing origami-type flowers out of post-it notes. Well, the notes were too small and my talent to do the folding, greatly lacking. So, I took three pink post-it notes at my office and wrapped/taped them around a thin wooden dowel to look like a rosebud. I then pushed it into a floral arrangement I had in my office, placed it by the window for natural lighting, and used my fuschia-pink daytimer book as a background! Tried to throw in a little creativity without the typicl yellow post-it notes! Hope it does well!

Okay, so the rose is made out of post it notes? I just wish that the photo focused more on that. I see more of the other flowers than I do the main focal point.

Seems to dark. Maybe its my screen but I think this shot could have used a bit more light.

A little dark, maybe lighten and bring in more of the other flowers.

Creative. Lighting needs little improvement. The post-it flower shape is very basic.

You made a pretty good flower,but the composition really fails here. The purplish background is too obvious and the shadows are not pleasing. The flowers are cut off at strange places making this look somewhat messy.
