Last week I asked you to tell me what my new flower was made from.
Did you guess right? It was made from this - yes, a tea light candle holder!
and a green candle at that! Just how green can you get!
Take a look at the die shown last week -the reason it worked was because the petal centres did not cut through the metal at the middle of the die as they would on card. I did this for an experiment - You do this at your own risk, because I don't know your machine and how much pressure there is on the roller. It seems all machines differ.

The only guide line can be - never force anything.
Next week I will be looking at making a similar card to this using the Stylized Flowers folder and die cuts

I hope you like it and will drop by to see just how I made this folder work for me.....
