For the flower, stamped the script background stamp (Impression
Obsession CAC "Script") with the black on white cardstock,
smeared Distress Stains "Scattered Straw", "Mustard Seed" &
"Wild Honey" all over, misted with Perfect Pearls "Sunflower
Sparkle" and dried. Die cut with Spellbinders Dahlia set, cutting
2 of the 4th die up and 1 of the 3rd die up. The center cluster
is punched using a 1" Sakura (Carla Craft) punch from some plain
cardstock smeared with Mustard & Wild Honey.

Cut between the scallops of the 3 large die cuts to about 1/2"
from the center. Use the eraser end of a pencil and place in
center of large Dahlia die cut, bring up petals and scrunch
around pencil, open petals up and partial squeeze each petal in
half. This softens and forms the flower layer. Do this to all 3
die cuts.
Use the flat end of a bamboo skewer and place in center of
Sakura blossom, scrunch around skewer. Put a dab of glue on
outside bottom of scrunched Sakura and press the next layer onto
the glue and scrunch up around skewer. Continue with rest of
Sakura's, hold in place while glue dries, then fluff up a bit.
Place a drop of glue in the centers of the die cut layers and
continue adhering the Sakura cluster to the die cuts. When glue
has set, add a bead of Stickles Yellow to the edges of the die
cut petals. Set aside to dry.
