Handmade Roses!

Friendship Card
I made this rose using Stampin Up's new owl punch. I know, an owl!! Pretty cool huh? You punch out 10 of the bird bodies (cut off his little feet!) and then you need 1 of the larger scalloped circle punch (for the center part). The time consuming part is sponging every punched piece and curling it with your bone folder. But I LOVE how cool it looks!


Here's the video I used from Valita's Fresh Folds!

You can really see the shimmer from this view!
Gotta love that shimmer mist!

More accurate shot of the true colors used.

This took a lot of time to make. I mean a lot, a lot, a lot of time. For one flower. I promise to *almost* never complain about the cost of paper flowers again, lol! I do have to say that these flower cards are so much prettier in person. It was really bright and sunny out and I guess I was getting too good at taking photos in the dreariness, lol!


Here's the video for this flower.

Stamp Happy!
