Paper Rose Tutorial.

Here are some instructions on how to create the roses used in the Gorgeous Girls kit.

Firstly cut a circle from patterned paper with a diameter of about 4cm. It is not necessary for the circle to be exactly round.
Then cut a spiral shape into the circle starting from the outer edge. Again it is not necessary for this to be perfect or measured.
Now fold over the outer edge of the spiral all the way to the centre.

Starting at the outer point, begin rolling the spiral in towards the centre. Keep holding on to the outer point until you have rolled all the way to the centre, leaving the centre circle free for the moment.
With the rose held securely between your fingers, turn it over. Snip of the protruding piece so that the base is flat.
Add a good amount of glue to the bottom.


Fold the circle centre over onto the glue and press firmly so the glue seeps into all the gaps.


 Hold firmly until the glue has dried.

Your completed rose.

Hope you had fun creating this rose. They are beautiful on scrapbook layouts as well as cards.
