The girls recently said that their favorite decoration at the wedding were the paper flowers as their backdrop!  I think it was mine too!  They were so beautiful and such a big impact.  I think I cut out about 800 petals!  Well worth it!  The ivory ones above were my first test flowers.  I made my own templates in three different "flower" styles!  In hindsight, I wish I had cut out 1000 more petals, they were so beautiful!!  

The flowers were thumbtacked to 1x8x6 boards with 'L' brackets on the back to let the boards sit up.
