I so enjoy making these sculpted roses!
I inked the stamp with Summer Sun and rolled the edges in Cameo Coral, then stamped the image. The result is a rose tinged with orange.

Here are the directions for the rose: I used four layers for each rose. I stamped two large and two of the medium and cut them out. I cut one of the medium images smaller than the other, cutting it so that part of it was free from the rest. (It looks sort of like a pinwheel.)That makes it look more realistic when you shape them. I hold each layer of the rose image in my left hand and, with my right thumb and forefinger, I bend and push the edges up against my left thumb, then I assemble the four layers of the rose (use any adhesive you like...I use Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue), and glue some small beads in the center using CE. It's really quite a quick process...the rose is done in minutes. If you have any questions, PM me. Have fun!
PS: I use the leaves from Lovely Leaves...I think they are more realistic than the leaves from R in W.

Elaine, this is just sooooooo lovely. I especially love the delicate blend of the colors on the roses and other flowers. The Fine Lace makes a lovely backdrop for the flowers.
