    1. Use a pencil to draw small, medium, and large circles on black cardstock. Cut the circles out with paper edger scissors.
    2. Fold and bend the black cardstock circles into petal shapes with a flat center.
    3. Use a 3/4" flat brush to apply Triple Thick to the top of each layer. Continue folding and bending until the paper is nearly dry.
    4. For the purple flowered bag, use the same brush dipped in Fuchsia for the outer petals and Black for the center.
    5. For the orange flowered bag, use the same brush dipped in Orange for the largest and smallest petals and Black for the middle-sized petal.
    6. Apply a small amount of Triple Thick with a 3/4" flat brush to the backs of the petals and connect onto the flat center. Press and hold down for a few seconds.
    7. Use a hot glue gun to glue the cardstock flower to the center of the tote.
    8. Hot glue on a rhinestone at the center of the flower.
