You need one of those med tubes. I use them for killing my chronicle pain.
They are effervescent tablets. So if you have effervescent tablet for something else they havve the same kind of small lids.
You need only the lids.

Gather all your lids together.

We must reshape the lids as first.
Cut carefully the wirelooking shape of the lid , watch the picture;-D

Now you can cut off the top of the lid.
After all you have a lid with 2 circles, watch the picture
5

lay the lids in a row to look how much you will need of them.
6

Now take your light weitghed air drying clay.
I used this brand, I showing you this so you can see how it looks like to find your brand in your country.

For the smaller beads fill the empty lids of the top of the medslids.

Cut it out.

Iron a piece of fuseable webbing on the wrong side of the velvet an on that you must draw for every bead you will use two circles.

Cut a smaller circle for every bead of some foam rubber.
12

Pin the circles and the foam rubber in between to each other.
13

With paperpol add a layer on the behind side of the round.
Mayby you must add one or two layers as well , till it's feeling smoothly.

15

With pearl shell acrylic paint , paint the upside of your big lids.
Let it dry.
mayby add some more layers on it.
when it's totally dried, you can glue the flower rose on the top of it.

Thread red glas seads bead on yarn for the top layer of the top circle for the bigger beads.
and glue them down.
17

Glue the pink small paper roses on top of the biggest lids
and tiny metal roses roses on the smaller ones.
