I found a great video tutorial from Julie Walters here and made these over the weekend. In the tutorial, she uses a Sizzix die for her 8-petal flower form. I could not find a similar 8-petal flower on my Cricut cartridges, and since she mentioned that it would work with a 6-petal one as well, I found one on Accent Essentials (page 57, shift key). I made a few changes from hers, using more layers and omitting the use of a stylus, for the practical reason that could not find mine anywhere! That turned out to be a happy accent and using my fingers to curve the petals worked just fine! More details on cut sizes, etc. on my blog.

I was wondering if you know where i can purchese accent estentials carterage thanks Joan

Oh how beautiful these flowers turned out. With all the flower carts out now, it's so easy to forget what we can create with the older carts too, and these look amazing. I also love your little picket fence basket with the flower, how pretty is that!
