Thanks for saying hello Carol!
Try THIS FLOWER TUTORIAL that mine were based on.
I hand cut my flowers though as I don't have a punch. They need 6 petals. And instead of neatly rolling OUT, I wet my edges, roughed them up until the white inside was revealed and then rolled them IN.
When the whole 3d flower was assembled, I squashed it flat.
A couple of people compared them to Prima lollipops - they are actually nothing like it - much more complicated!!! And very hard to photograph - IRL they look very 3d and have a real sense of depth to them.
I'm yet to try these neat versions shown in the tutorial link, but I love the look of them, and will give it a go as soon as the right layout presents itself.
Hope you enjoy playing and please leave me a link to your project if you give it a go. I'd LOVE to see!!
