Die cut, colour the reverse and stroke the same colour ink from the outer edge into the centre of the flower. Place the petals facedown into the mold and lightly spritz with water, run through the die cutting machine to shape. Piece a hole in the centre of each set of petals. Pull 10 medium blue stamens through the centre of each set of petals and poke a large gold stamen into the centre. Hot glue into place.
