Default Tutorial - Delicate Little Flower Center

I've been doing these little flowers for a while - I forget now if I came up with it by accident or if I saw it somewhere but I thought I'd share.

I like the way the black looks like little creases in the flower petals. So here's how it is done.

The center is a plunged, cooled and snapped off stringer made from pea green with intense black stripes. - DO NOT encase - as the intense black cannot do it's magic if encased.

It works best on white petals so the intense black can spread into the petals.

I've used this for my green floral spacers in my strawberry sets. The tutorial for the strawberries is in the last issue of the Annealer magazine.
