Hi Teneisha

I think its an english poppy but made in cream paste as opposed to the normal red, you should be able to find the cutters if you do a google search.

The middle is a flattened cone of black gumpaste with a circle of cotton stamens, wind the cotton around 2 fingers tie a wire in each side and the cut half way to give you 2 bunches and then brush them with either sugar glue or egg white to stiffen allow to dry and then arrange around the centre cone.

hope thats some help

regards Les

Thank you Judith.

I saw 2 videos on you tube last evening. They were pretty helpful and I also checked out the link posted by Deah. I think I got the hang of what I'm to do so I'm planning to do my practice run.

Thanks again everyone :)
