Tips from the show

• If your cutting isn't perfect and you have a white border on the flowers, it still looks beautiful, so don't stress about achieving perfect cuts.
• Position your elements first to get an idea of where you want everything before adhering.
• You can cascade the hearts in different ways—stack them inside one another or arrange them down the card for different effects.
