Flourishing Roses
Instructions:
Cut a piece of Deluxe Flower Shaping paper to 11 1/2 x 7" size, score and fold at 3 1/4" and 8 1/4". Using from the HCD2-7403 Fancy Flourish Border Die, diecut the outline edge on the right and left fold of card so that the folds interlock beautifully. Next cut two 3 1/4 x 7" size paper panels, 1 pink and 1 green from the Dazzling Dahlia paper collection. Use the same outline die to cut matching panels for the card folds. Place the green panel on the left fold and the pink the right fold of card. Cut another piece of the green paper to fit into inside of card and attach. Lightly sponge the green panel edges with Leaf Green ink and the pink panel with Pink Peony and Magenta Hue. Now diecut the decorative Fancy Flourish Border Die, left and right die twice from Deluxe Flower Shaping paper. Adhere the same die pieces on top of each other for beautiful dimension. Lightly sponge around the outer edges of diecut pieces with Pink Peony and Magenta Hue ink and then attach onto card folds using glue and dimensional adhesive.
Stamp the set of 2 twice and set of 6 rose petals three times from HCPC-3752 Classic Rose Cling Stamp Set in white pigment ink onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper. Sprinkle with Aged Ivory embossing powder and heat set with heat tool. Diecut with the matching dies. Stamp two the vining leafy accents and one of the set of 3 leaf from HCPC-3835 Leafy Accents Cling Stamp Set in Leaf Green ink onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper. Diecut with the matching dies. Stamp the Thinking of You sentiment in Magenta Hue ink, then cut words apart and sponge edges with the same ink.
Use the Stack and Store daubers to color the roses and leaves. For the rose petals, sponge both the backside and front with Pink Peony and Magenta Hue. Start from the center of petals and blend outward, leaving the edges of petals white. Sponge the leaves with Vivid Chartreuse ink, Leaf Green, and then lastly a touch of the Olive in center of leaves. Place the rose petals into the HCFB1-462 3D Rose Shaping Mold, stamped side down. Mist with water and send the diecutting machine. Follow the same process for the leafy accent using the HCFB1-467 3D Leafy Accents Shaping Mold.
Layer the rose petals together using hot glue. For the smaller rose buds, color some of the wire stamen with the Leaf Green ink. Pierce a hole in the center of small petals and thread stamen through, attaching with hot glue. Temporarily lay out the leaves and roses over the left fold of card to visualize placement. Then set them aside and sponge Leaf Green ink over the main and surrounding area of placement. This creates a shadow backdrop for a more dimensional look. Attach the leaves and roses using hot glue. Attach the sentiment as shown. Dab some Dries Clear glue onto a sponge, apply over roses, leaves and rest of card as desired, then sprinkle with Rajni Chawla’s Crystal Clear glitter and tap off.
