Creamy Roses

Today's Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoaststampers takes us to the website of Superfine Bakery - I chose a cake covered in creamy swirls for my inspiration.

I cut a number of roses from felt with My Favorite Things Rolled Rose Die-namics and used snips from Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish die.  I prefer using felt rather than paper making flowers like these as it can be squished without harm! 

I dry embossed a small bit on the bottom of the panel and a large bit at the top, leaving a smooth strip for stamping the seniment - this works well with a Cuttlebug, simply turning the folder sideways, especially if you're using a panel on top of a card base.  I usually tape the folder onto the panel from the back so that it doesn't slide around and the end result is straight!

I then stitched the edges and popped it up on the card base.

Dipped into my jar of vintage buttons once more to finish off the bow made with gold cord.
