Pocket Boutonniere
A new idea is the pocket boutonniere. Using floral adhesive to glue a line of fresh flowers, ribbons and filler across the top of a cardboard cut to the size of the breast pocket of a tux or suit. Decorate to suit you, then simply tuck the finished flowers into the pocket! 
Decorate with wire, bling, rhinestones, a cluster of flowers or a row of the same flower head - it's fun to design! 
Here's an unusual way - attaching PETALS instead of the flower head. Add an attractive band of ribbon or rhinestones to finish. 
Here, a few sprays of looped pearls and a couple pieces of hanging amaranthus finish off red roses beautifully. 
Even just loops of ribbon can be used to peek coyly out of the top of the pocket! 
There card can be finished off with a store logo, your stamp, or a photo of that "special girl"!
