Bouquet Bigz Die Orchid Tutorial


As promised, here is my “tutorial” for making orchids from the Bouquet Bigz Die found in the Occasions catalog.  I was in a bit of a hurry when I was making these …so please forgive the the “neatness” factor of my photos!!! Smile My glue gun went a little wild!!  The end result is what counts…right??   So here goes….

Sponge some crushed curry in the center....because it is not smooth, it doesn't look to "pretty" yet!

Fold the center into fourths
