Roses Using Kathy Orta's Video Tutorial

As promised from my Swap Post, here are the close ups of the flowers that I made.  You can see how to do these HERE.  Thank you so much Kathy ( Paper Phenomenon & YouTube) for sharing your techniques with us.  I personally have bought Prima flowers, but I have not used the mini roses.  Using your technique it is so easy & fun to make them.  Also, like you said, you always have the color (and size - in my case) that you need.  The paper that I used was actually manila folders.
 
 
And here are the projects (again - for those of you that saw my swap post).

Cricut Cut Swap for Joyce (1fotojoy) on YouTube

Momo from MadeByMomo hosted a Cricut Cut Swap. I was lucky enough to get in it. I was paired up with Joyce (1fotojoy) on YouTube. This is what I am sending her. Now, these pics aren't very exciting to see, but let me explain. Joyce is very talented - check out her YouTube channel to see for yourself. The cuts that she wanted, she wanted left plain & cut in either white, black, manila, brown or grey. she is going to decorate & embellish them to fit the projects she will be using them on. So I made multiples of all of the cuts. I do have some extras that I don't have pics of yet.

Joyce I am so sorry that these are getting to you a little late (explained in my email). Since they cannot go out into the mail until tomorrow due to the holiday I am making some extras for you too. I also have a surprise for you, SO IF YOU DON'T WANT A SPOILER - LOOK NO FURTHER!!!!!!!
Here are the cuts that I have pics of for her.




HERE IS HER SURPRISE:
It is a sign for her craft room (space). I really hope she likes it. I had a ton of fun making it. The pic is OK, but it truly does look so much better in person. I can't wait for her to see it.
Here is the tag that I made for her too. I just wrote a note on the back for her.
Special thanks to Momo for hosting such a fun swap. I also want to thank Kathy Orta YouTube & Paper Phenomenon for THIS tutorial. I just had a ball making these roses. I cut mine at 1", 1 1/2", & 2". I will show close ups in a later post.
