I love these water lillies but it took me forever to come up with a suitable background. I think I tried them on all 48 colours before I decided on a stamped background using Circle circus and Old Olive on Very Vanilla cardstock.
The lillies are punched from velum cs and lightly sponged with Melon Mambo.
For theyellow centers I used two flowers from the Boho blossoms punch. I laid themon a mouse pad and pressed the center with an embossing tool to give them a 3D look.

Soooo gorgeous!!
I see you used the five point flower punch for the velum part of the flower. Which punches did you use for the yellow centers??
