Afterward, Quynh Nguyen stated: «I am so grateful to Cartotecnica Rossi for creating such beautiful crepe papers. Creating paper flowers brings a profound sense of accomplishment by transforming simple materials into something beautiful with my hands, fostering a wonderful sense of community among fellow paper flower artisans.
Delving into crepe paper flowers allows me to study and understand the intricate components of each bloom. I have become attuned to the tiny details of flowers everywhere, from the color variations in pollen to recognizing anatomical parts like the calyx and sepal. Observing petals closely reveals that a white petal can contain hints of green, yellow, or even pink! With Cartotecnica Rossi's incredible line of colors, I can achieve the perfect shades of green or pink for my paper flowers. Their crepe paper has elevated my artistry to the next level.»
