I see so many beautiful flowers done on CC and want to start trying some. Do you have to have a separate cutter/veiner for each type of flower or are there a few cutters that can you can use for more than one? It can be a big expense. I'd like to get something that is the most versatile and can be used for several flowers. I love the large ruffly flowers that people are doing, you only have to do one or two for the whole cake. Thanks for any help! icon_biggrin.gif

You can make pretty much any big rose or peony with the rose cutters. Just get a good variety of petal sizes. Round cutters are good, too.

costumeczar, for a newbie do I need to purchase a veiner for each cutter ? Thanks for your reply.

I'd just get a basic veiner that you can use for a lot of petals. I use a poppy press for rose, hydrangea, basic petals like that. For a lot of them you don't even need to do veins at all. I'm pm'ing you...
