Hi, I had a lot of you wanting to know how to make the paper rose I used in my last post. So here is my version of it. I don't remember where I found the instructions for this, I think in a craft magazine. But I couldn't find it, so here is my attempt of instructions.
The supplies you will need:
3 different sized flower punch
card stock
Water mister
Hole punch
Brad
Punch out 4 of each size
Stack each group on top of each other and punch hole in the center.
Turn layers to stagger them.
Mist the flower to soften the paper. Pull up each layer kinda of scrunching toward the center.
Continue this way until all layers are scrunched up. Here is the finished rose plus another color to show you what that would look like.
The card stock I used is Cranberry tart and sweet corn by Gina K. Designs. The leaves are from Melanie Muenchinger set " A year of Leaves by Gina K Designs.
If you have any further questions just ask and I would love to see what you come up with.
Thanks for stopping by.

These are just gorgeous and I thank you for the tutorial!
These are goregous!!!~! I love the leaves too.
Do you know that out of all of the many punches and dies I own, none of them are flower punches? Lol... Thanks for the tutorial, Geri - your flowers are so beautiful! I'm going to buy some punches so I can try this!
Your roses are beautiful, thanks for sharing the "how to" instructions.
Great tutorial Geri!
I gave it a try Geri! My flower didn't turn out quite as pretty as yours but maybe if I make several, they'll improve! I think the best tip you passed along was to mist the paper -- it definitely made it easier to "scrunch up"! Thanks!
Those are great! I do not have those punches but perhaps scalloped nesties would work. I also don't have A year of leaves. I guess I have to go shopping!
OH MY! Geri FABULOUSO!!! I didn't see your card but these roses are spectacular!!!
This is gorgeous Geri, thanks for showing us..
Geri, Love the roses, Thanks for telling and showing us how to make them. They are gorgeous.
Thanks for sharing this fabulous tutorial, Geri!! I will certainly be creating a few of these!!
Wow! What a fab job you did with these roses. And, the color is over the top beautiful!
your roses are stunning! gonna try this toot and thanks so much for giving it...going to take Betty's advice and be sure to mist a lot!
hope I can come come close to yours - it really is gorgeous!
Wow! Those are Gorgous!! Humm I wonder if I have 3 punches?? I bet the Lg scallop nestie cirles will work too though, maybe not as many petals though. Thanks for the instructions!!
gorgeous Geri! I had been scrunching up my flowers, then seperating the layers to make mine, but love the fullness of yours~!!
ooh! thanks for sharing - I so can't wait to make one now!!
Oh my GOLLY!!!!! How awesome!!! Ok, now I seriously need to break down and buy those punches!!! LOL
