Very nice! What kind of breakcharge did you use, and how many layers of pasting?

kp 6 to 1 plus 5 grams slow flash

7 raps of 1 inch kraft tape

Are these plastic shells?

 

One small critique I could make would be that the inner petal wasn't all that round. This isn't always an easy thing to remedy however. It takes practice and tweaking to get it just right. People seem to have the best luck using just a cavity made in the burst, no hard hemisphere liner. Some others, myself included, prefer a thin perforated paper liner. I'm talking maybe 1-3 layers of paper.
