I LOVE roses (hence my member name) and really LOVE this new Classic Rose Collection from Heartfelt Creations This is a new collection released today of beautiful rose and leaf images and matching dies. I'm not very good at shaping flowers, but even I can do an okay job with these following the video tutorial by Emma Lou at Heartfelt Creations.
The flowers and leaves were all stamped with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed with Aged Ivory Embossing Enamel on Natural White cardstock. To color my flowers I used chalk inks and make-up applicators before die cutting them, then after die cutting them I shaped them with the flower shaping kit into various sized flowers. I love the soft look of using the chalk inks. I did a tutorial last year on how I do this on my blog here if you are interested: http://joyfullymadedesigns.blogspot....y-step_24.html
