I have never tried this either, but I have seen the beautiful cards made using this technique! I hope to play a bit later. Thanks for the challenge Beth!!
I love doing paper tole.... IMO about the only set good for it is ole Roses in Winter! So I guess the challenge for me will be to use a 'demoable' set!!!
ps. when the gallery is up, i have a few in mine for inspiration...have used them on name frames, calendars etc.

Yep....our poor old girl would be a nice one for this
OK, I looked at the Paper Tole Gallery and my flowers do NOT look anything like the ones there-- I think I used the wrong set to try it out! I will have to try again later...... http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...0&ppuser=77458

Playing around
I wasn't too sure about the technique, but I had one stamped flower in Orchid Opulence on my desk and messed with it. Stamped two more in orchid opulence and layered them. Wow, lovin' the results. I then added the snow blossom and a gem - even better. Stamped the main blossom again in green and cut apart to use for leaves behind the blossom. WOW, it worked! Please take a look and let me know what you think.
This looks like a really cool technique to try! Never done it! Looks like everyone is getting some fabulous results with it! I haven't been able to try challenges on here lately and I really miss them! I hope to get to this one! Thanks Beth!

I really don't think I did this right and I tried several times. I spritzed my cut out flowers and curled them, but they look NOTHING like everyone elses in the gallery Anyway I kind of like the end result, but I know it is not the correct way to do it!! Posting anyway:

So much fun!
Beth, this technique is so much fun, I had to try another. I really want to use Roses in Winter, but I am resisting, trying to use demonstrable sets. I am very happy with the results of both sets I've tried so far. Please take a look and let me know what you think.
