2: Pin all the petals closer to make it stick together

3: Remove the pins carefully once it is dry.

These sort of non elevated flowers can be used for card making. It's simple and elegant and can be safe if the cards are mailed.

1: Glue petals in a circle

2: Pull the petals closer and pin it over the foam board. This way the centre space would be small

1&2: Glue a tight coil in the centre of the petal arrangement.

3: Pin the centre of the tight coil in the foam board

4: Press the centre using your finger. The harder you press the more elevated the flower will look. After a minute leave it aside

This flower add a 3D effect.

This flower can be used in 3D arrangements for example you can place in vase and it will look like a real flower

1: Quill a tight coil in Green. Press in the centre of the tight coil to create a doam.

2: Insert the floral wire inside the tight coil and glue it

3: Use the petals created in Step 5 & apply glue in the behind of the flower

4: Press the elevated flower inside the doam. Once the petals and twig is dry cover the floral wire with floral tape.
