Not bad for starters, a little bit of reflecting in the petals but I'm sure you will perfect the craft. Looks like it could have been a good buy I reckon Chris (y)

Cheers Alby I wondered what the "glitter" was

I think the reflections add to it, make it look all glittery, shame snowdrops do not have six petals

Yep your right I am still practicing with the tiny stuff ( and my mini-studio) its a reflection of the background

How about putting a "collar" round the stem and then scraping some "frost" out of the freezer and sprinkling that on the card and then taking the picture - or put the card collar in the freezer first to give you a few extra seconds

Good plan (y)
 
I like it. especially the glittery petals!
 
Chris try this.... take one of the centre petals off so you can see into the flower side on and shot the stamen from the side looking into the flower, I reckon it will be pretty neat ;)
