You will need:
Gum paste
wires (I used white wrapped wires the ones from Walmart)
tooth pick
pointy tool or use like a pen
scissors
pliers
optional: green and pink color dust or shimmer
stamens (I used store bought)
You can make the stamens your self. To make em: take a thread and dip it with white glue then run your fingers truth. Cut the threads, gather em into a bundle and attach to the wire.
Take a small piece of Gum paste. Make rectangular round shape. It's about 3/4 of an inch.
Make a funnel with a pointy tool. Use corn starch for the tip so it wont stick.
Make it like this.
Cut into 5 equal petals.
Then make the edges of the petals round with scissors.
This is the fun part:)
Take the tooth pick and start shaping petals. Gently roll out a stack of each petal. Pull gently each petal from the middle with tooth pick like in the picture. Then make a line in the middle to give a petal shape.
You can leave em white. I used pink shimmer powder.
Make a small hook with the wire.
Dip it into water then stick it in the flower bottom.
Stick the stamens in dip em in water first.
Optional: brush green color on the bottom of the flower.
Stick em into the styrofoam to dry.
