Happy Monday, everyone!
Today's technique should be one everyone can play in -- as there are so many ways to make ROLLED FLOWERS.
You can use dies, or hand cut your flowers in a spiral and roll them right up! Felt, fabric, ribbon, paper -- lots of different ways to do it and things to use.

Oh boy, do I need this - for the practice, LOL. I have the mini rolled rose dies from MFT but I still haven't made anything with them that I'd put on a card and give somebody. Hope to find time after work and housework to try to improve my technique!! Thanks, Judy.
I'll be right on this one. The last time my sister visited me she had her Sizzix die for rolled roses, and I cut out a bunch of diecuts before she left. I'll be back after I make my card.
Judy- great challenge, thanks! I used my DD's leftover pink felt from her 50's poodle skirt project to make my 2 rolled flowers, and added this dc frog, along with a dc flower and square copper colored button. Finished with a threaded fence style border. Here's Pretty in Pink

This one was a definite challenge for me. I watched 4 video tutorials and tried 8 times to make these dang flowers. I finally got one that turned out half decent so I stuck it on this card. LOL. Thanks for the huge challenge.
Got this adorable Little Boy set from my friend Laura, and decided to pair this little boy with puppies image with my rolled (pleated and gathered) fabric flower- along with a dc button, flower, and leaves combo. Added a jewel style brad for some sparkle. Here's Puppy Love
