I wanted to make tiny daffodils based on the ones at the Creative Cake Academy (see the photos on her blog for Sep. 17, 2011). I was able to make them with just the Boho Blossoms punch and a little no-name flower punch that I have. A bit fiddly to make but I'm really pleased with how they turned out. To make the centres of the flowers stand out, I first punched out the smallest of the Boho Blossoms flowers and snipped it from the edge to the centre; then I folded the snipped edges so they overlapped by two 'petals' and glued them down. It was a bit tricky gluing the centre pieces to the outer parts of the flower, but I managed with some tiny bits of sticky strip and then some Glossy Accents to hold it firmly. The stems were punched using the Bird Builder punch, and the frames were put through the Big Shot #Designer Frames ef# and trimmed with scissors. I sponged (with a Q-tip) some white craft ink around the inner edges of the frames to help 'frame' the flowers.

You did a great job. The background colour you chose really shows off your blossoms. Thanks for all the detail in explaining all your cards. It is very helpful.
