Make sure the bottle is clean and fairly dry. To create the flower head, cut off the base of the bottle. Leave about 1.5 cm of the sides of the bottle still attached. If it helps you, draw a marker line where you want to cut. Some bottles even have a faintly etched line that makes cutting much easier. I recommend using an X-acto knife to separate the base, then scissors to even any rough edges. Try to make the edges as smooth and level as possible, as this will make attaching it to the card much easier. Don't forget to recycle the remainder of the bottle.
