    Hi Sherry,

    Thanks for visiting! I made the flower using Graphic 45's Christmas Emporium paper - the back side of "believe". I cut the petals out of this page using McGill Paper Flower punch 64511 Star Lily. The flower is made up of 8 of the largest petals and 6 of the 2nd largest petals. Once cut, I sprayed the petals with Perfect Pearls Blue Patina (which I mixed with water in a mini mister). When those were dry I used the McGill tools to shape the flower and glued the petals to a base. The flower turned out pretty cool - it looks kind of like leather close up.

    Blessings,
    Cheryl
