You first need to ID how you are going to send the email, as Flow doesn't have a native action for sending transactional email to customers. There are many 3p options if you search for them in the tasks (uncheck "installed" apps). 

 

The rest of that should be possible in Flow. Probably you'll want to use "Get order data" to look for orders that are paid but unfulfilled

okay i found a flow that will work for me and changed it to 5 days. however, it adds a tag to the customer. How do I now take that tag and email the customer to notify their order will have a delay shipping?

Since you can only have 1 action per loop currently, you would need to add a second loop in the "then" path of your for each loop. There you loop over the same thing and add the action to email.
