the first layer of the flower is a 5-petal design traced onto the back of the designer paper. After cutting that flower base out, I used (5)1 1/8" and (6) of the 3/4" circle punches for the remaining layers. Curling all petals with the tip of a bamboo skewer adds more dimension. The layers are secured with glue dots.. overlapping slightly. The sixth 3/4" punch is curled tightly around the skewer and becomes the center of the flower. To make the whole thing really solid, crystal effects is added after assembly at the center intersections. Thanks for looking!
