Default Anyone know where to buy large paper flowers?

Hi ladies!
Does anyone know where to buy those large 2" or bigger paper flowers? I've seen some gorgeous samples using them, but cannot find any place to buy them. It seems that everything I've seen for sale are all similar to Prima's 1 3/8" or smaller.
Anyone found a supplier with reasonable prices/shipping?
Thanks so much.
Have a great day!
Jennifer Good

Oh I want to know too. The best I have thought is to find a die to cut my own but I know those won't look as great.

The only mondo ones I've seen are actually silk (Heidi Swapp, etc.)

I didn't realize Prima made any paper ones 4 1/2" diameter???

I use my dies to make some that are about 3" diameter, and there's an Ellison one I really want for same--Jeanne has it . . . Makes me drool every time she cuts a flower with it . . . :mrgreen:

I just got some super sized Primas at Target. The are silk like, not paper.
They come in a clear paint can and are about 3 1/4 to 4 inches across. Really pretty colors, too.

Thanks Kathleen! I just ran out to Target and I found them. They are really pretty colors! The ones I found, actually, are paper, not silk. They look a little different than a daisy, but if layered, resemble daisies. $10 for a small clear paint can full of them. Maybe 30 or so in the can of around 6 different colors.
Hope anyone else interested in them can find them at their Target!
Anyone know of any place selling large daisies? I would love to find a rich dark brown or deep currant/ cranberry.
Thanks again everybody!
Jennifer

I have a contact who sells 2", 3", 4" and 5" blossoms ... but they're in the UK. I can get them and send them on if anyone is interested.

Thanks Carole and Julie.
I did a search for Heidi Swapp florals, and I found some really pretty ones at FranticStamper.com. I think I'll end up buying some from Fran, she's got great customer service and very reasonable shipping.
Have a great day!
