	How to put it together
	To saturate, place the cross face down in a water reservoir. Place the OASIS® floral foam cross in the tripod and insert the leather leaf.
	Cover the cross surface with leather leaf and plumose, maintaining the shape of the cross.
	Place the beige and light pink roses (middle open) along the surface of the cross. Use purple spray aster to fill empty spaces.
	Purple lisianthus are placed in the center of the cross as an accent in the design.
	To delineate the line of the design, place liatris in the extremes of the cross. This will also help to enlarge the design. The mini-gypsophila provides smoothness and a touch of relaxation to the design.

The OASIS® Floral Foam Cross is an innovative product created and launched by Smithers-Oasis Mexico early 2005. The product, made with OASIS® DELUXE floral foam, is covered with a plastic film that preserves the water, once absorbed, avoiding evaporation, and also prevents the product from dripping, due to its common use (hung on walls or metal structures). The film also allows the florist to insert flowers in an easier way, saving time in the elaboration of the floral arrangement. The base is made of masonite, a water-resistant material that perfectly supports the weight of the product, once water saturated. One box contains four crosses of 30" each.
