I found the wafer paper at Amazon.com. It is made from potato starch and vegetable oil, and is totally edible although not terribly tasty. It punches easily with a paper punch. I sprayed it with watered down food coloring and made a bunch of colored butterflies and flowers with pink and with mint green centers glued in with cookie icing..
JoAnns, Hobby Lobby and Michaels all carry cake decorating supplies and punches. All 3 often have 40 or 50% off coupons if you are patient enough to wait and buy one thing at a time.
Cost for decorated cupcakes: (not considering sales or coupons)
wafer paper Amazon $14.80 link
cookie icing(to use as glue) JoAnns $4.99
sugar pearls for centers JoAnns $4.99 (2) I bought pink and green
Fiskers flower punch Jo Anns $ 5.99
Martha Stewart small butterfly punch Jo Anns $15.99
Martha Stewart large butterfly punch Jo Anns $24.99

I found that using a tweezers was very helpful ... I dipped the sugar balls in a puddle of icing and put them in the center of the flowers to dry.
