Make a bouquet out of a single flower image.
The flower in the center was duplicated three times and various transforms were performed along with the shear filter to make them look different from the original. I had to put a small shadow behind the center flower to visually separate it from the others. Maybe with a little practice I can make bouquets that will rival Snap Shot's (No way, lol.)

I think you did an amazing job. I wouldn't have known they were all the same flower if you hadn't told us.

Two suggestions that I personally feel would improve your effort, both on this image, and one that you posted previously are . . .
1) Your background seems too sharp and as a result draws attention away from your "bouquet".
2) The edges of some of the cut-out are not smooth and unnatural looking. Two things you might try to correct this would be to use the "blur" tool on the edge, or select the cut-out then "modify/feather" . . . trying different amounts of feathering (1, 2, 3, 4, etc pixels)
Here are two examples of that which I am suggesting. Both have the background blurred with Gaussian blur at .7 %
First I cut out the flowers. On the first I selected the edge of the flowers and then went to (in PS) "Select" then "Modify" then "Feather" and set it at 4 pixels.
On the second I simply went around the edges of the flower with a very small brush using the Blur Tool.
They would be better if starting with the original, but thought I would show you my suggestions for your consideration. Jut keep playing with it, starting from scratch with each effort until you get what you really love.

You made it look very nice. Well done. This was a "quick & dirty" work intended only to demonstrate how a single flower could be transformed into looking like different flowers with different orientations.
