Cricut Art Philosophy Fairytale Roses Tutorial

Hello all. It has been some time since I have posted here. Life has been pretty busy, so I haven't had as much opportunity to craft as I would like. In my last post I showed you how I made paper roses using CTMH's exclusive Cricut cartridge - Art Philosophy. Today, I would like to show you how I made the little cardstock roses on the card below.

As I mention in my video, this is not my original idea. I watched a couple of You Tube videos on how to make Prima Fairytale Roses using a punch from EK Success. I created this video to show you how you can make these roses using one of the images found on our Cricut cartridge.

I used Card Patterns sketch #159






See my video tutorial below.
