I have been reading Julie's blog for years. When I saw her tutorial for mini paper roses, I decided to give it a try. They were incredibly easy and oh, so cute! I don't have the punches that she uses, but once again SCAL and my Cricut came to the rescue. I cut the flowers out at 0.5" and the "leaves" at 0.6". If anybody would like the svg files, just e-mail me and I'll send them your way.
When I was finished, I had these three darling little roses, but no idea how I would use them as they don't really suit my style of card-making. Plus most of the cards I create are CASEd from someone! ;-) After a bit of fiddling, I came up with this card, which I think suits my style. The card reminds me of the wedding invitations that I created for my mom three years ago.
Thanks for looking,
Kim
