I just love this new Susan Tierney Sizzix die. I watched a couple of videos but didn't like any of them. I used 8 large petals on the bottom layer, then rolled the funny looking middle petal, added about 5 small petals around the middle bud, added 8 medium petals around that, then cut the cone off that to give it a flat bottom, and finally glued the centre to the bottom layer. I watercoloured all the petals before I assembled. When I first bought these dies I went to China town and bought a whole bunch of those voile drawstring bags to use as envelopes and I make these really bulky cards for hand delivery only.
I'm ranking the difficulty as 3 because although not all that difficult it was very time consuming.

Elizabeth, your gorgeous yellow rose is mind-boggling! Gorgeous, gorgeous card....and I'm glad that you are hand delivering it so you can see in person the recipient's thrilled expression.
