Roses in Winter

Made some roses for Sweet Celebrations Wedding Cakes today...


And here's a close up


All you need to make these are the Stampin Up Ornament and 1 1/4 circle punches, yeap thats it!



Punch out 1 circle and 10 ornaments

( sorry not sure why the pic is sideways!)





Curl them to give them some shape. Some tight and some just slightly curled



Start to layer them on your circle base Use 4 for your bottom layer with the 'petals' that have been the least curled



Next you layer 3 of the tighter petals, I suggest off setting the petals so they are not perfectly lined up.




Then you finish the center off with the last and tightest rolled petals to get this flower!





You can use more petals for a fuller flower I've tried 6 at the bottom, next layer 4, next 3 and finish with 3 at center.


Stay tuned to see what Sweet Celebrations Wedding Cakes did with these roses :) Pics to follow!!
