Pennants Rose

It's been over a month since my last post. Wow! Time sure does fly by. I have been getting a lot of requests for instructions on how I made a rose using our Pennants die set. I want to apologize in advance for the poor quality of the pictures.

I hope you enjoy recreating this rose.  It takes a little time and effort, but I'm sure you'll agree that it's worth it. In the words of Richard Garay, "It's Yummy and Delicious! "

*Cut 4 scalloped pennants from the Watermelon Fusion card stock.

*Distress the edges with Sweet Berry Ink.

*Using a bone folder, curl the edges of the pennant.

*Adhere White Liner to the base of the pennant.

*use a pair of tweezers to start rolling your rose. After about 3 wraps, remove tweezers and start shaping your rose as you continue to roll your rose.

*After all 4 pennants have been adhered to your rose( you may use more or less depending on what size rose you want to make), cut a circle the size of your rose base.

*Use hot glue to adhere the circle to the rose.

Last, cut a few leaves and distress the edges. Score down the center of each leaf and adhere to the base of your rose.
