I made this for the teaparty. Maureen so graciously is hostessing the party today. She picked the sweetest little rose teapot. I made these little paper roses after seeing these roses that Joanne made. The paper that I used for the roses was a piece of typing paper. I inked my brayer with, pinks, red, yellows and peach ink and rolled it over the typing paper. Then I used various punches to make the roses. The two biggest roses were made with a scallop circle punch. Each has 10 layers. They are held together in the centers with a brad. I scrunched (and that is the technical term) the layers around the brad. The medium sized flower was made with 6 layers of my 5 petal ek success flower punch. The little ones were 5 layers of my 5 petal ek succcess mini flower punch.
