The Ribbon Flower Tutorial at Long Last

I have been promising a tutorial on how to make my ribbon flowers for a very long time.  And today's the day, the tutorial is finally here!

The scanner kind of smushed the flowers.  I think they look way better in person than they do on this layout.  You can see the depth much more clearly in this photograph:
