Magic Cube Rose, by Valerie Vann

Not long ago, i learnt a model called "magic cube rose", by Valerie Vann. It's basically a cube that turns into a rose ("Gee, thanks Captain Obvious!")
...
Anyways, after I mastered it, I made a surprise to a female friend of mine, giving her the cube, which had three green sides and three red ones. She said "Cool cube!" to which I replied "Nah, it sucks, let me make it cooler". I took the cube and made it a rose, without her looking. Boy, I wish I had taken a picture of her face... such a harmonic mix of joy and surprise... Then I asked her to go out with me, and she accepted! We're dating for two months now.

Well, that's my story!

Here's a youtube video of the Origami Magic Rose Cube (Valerie Vann)

Origami Rose NEW
by: Alexis

I'm a little depressed that I just can't get this right. I wish you had a diagram up because with the contrast of the video and especially with that of the green paper, it was difficult to distinguish what was being folded or how.

I was always so depressed because I could never do an origami rose because of the zillions of folds and details involved in doing any one of them. Then, when I saw this one an tried it, I became estatic because I had just made my first origami rose! Thanks so much for this pattern!

The best tutorial
by: Susan

Not only is the cube rose beautiful, but the tutorial is one of the best that I've seen. Just slow enough to work along with the instructor. I'll look for more from her!

Good Job!
by: Origami Master

You did such a great job! I have a few questions. What paper are you using? Where did you get it from? Did it take you a long time to complete your first one? Can you make a diagram to go with this?
