This is the desing featured in Wanaree's Starter Guide for Metal Clay. It can be resized as illustrated in the guide, cut, fired, then stacked to create a dimentional lotus flower.

Depending on what clay you use, you may want to double up each piece, cut two out, at 2 cards thick, at the same sizing and paste together. You can also gently form each layer, then enamel to stabilize the structure of the piece. Bronze clay, PMC Pro, and PMC sterling are bit stronger and may not require extra stabilization.
