First what you'll need
1. Pencil (I suggest mechanical 0.7 or less)

Instructions for grid paper users: Ok, now that you have those items now the first step is simply drawing a dot on an interesting line(s) Like this:

Pretty simple so far huh? Well now it's only slightly more difficult! Now your going to start drawing your first petal.  Now where you put your dot find start the your petal by slowly working your a little diagonally not to much or to little. You can use the squares as your guid so when you draw your line it should be cutting your square(s) in half, you might have more then one cut squares if your making a big flower. Kind of like this:

Now start to round your petal at the top making them slightly pointed at the very tippy top and come back down meeting at your starting dot. Your petal should look like this. Once your done with that all you need to do is do the same to the other three petals. Don't forget to try to make your petals as even as possible! Your almost done flower should look like this towards the end:

Now all we have to is the final last touches which is shadowing which if you have not seen my tutorial on that here's the linkhttp://ljathearts.blogspot.com/2016/01/how-to-shadow-item-through-drawing-for.html So yeah lets get busy
Now starting at the dot start by making your value scale a little less then half of the petal on all four petals. Try to line up the value scale a much as possible, I know it can be hard but you may have to overlap it a lot but that's ok and make sure to rub really well or else you'll get a scratchy bumpy result. Your final result should look like this:
