bump.....I have the same issue and cant figure the best way to do it. I'm thinking of using the mexican hat method for the tri petal cutter and attaching the stem through that. Any advice?

morselsbymark: I am going to try the same mexican hat method for my one piece three petal part. I think it will work.
