For this week's You Can Do It challenge, we were to make a rosette (fan fold) flower or pinwheel for our card. This is my first rosette and I learned that it's not quite as easy as I thought.
I added some pink washi tape to the rosette, but it is too close in color to the paper, so doesn't show up. I punched the rosette with the grass border to get a ragged look to the flower. The card base is burgundy, the first layer is a very pale peach, and the stamped panel is white with edges inked in burgundy.
This was a fun challenge and I'm pleased with the results.

This is so pretty! I tried a rosette once and it would not stay closed. It acted kind of like a slinky! That was my first and last attempt. Maybe I should try again!
