Lettering with flowers???
Used to get asked for this all the time and in most cases it was near on impossible. Trying to do 'brother' on a 16" heart? Try a 30" heart (if you could get one!) You've only got to draw a 16" heart and then try and draw all the letters on at something like half inch width on each letter. Then think about the flowers you're going to use. Spray car? you might get 2 useable heads off each stem (they've all got to be the same size or it will look naff. Mark out all the flowers on your drawing with a 10p piece or something and see how many you'll need. You could try something like white stallion, but you wont be able to push them in so you'll have to wire each one..what a pain in the ass. I nearly always went for the silver ally letters. Do them in 5 minutes and cost peanuts. And how often do they say "i don't care what it costs"....until you tell them just how much.
