Newspaper Roses


Inspired by March/April '11 issue of "Cloth Paper Scissors" magazine.. these cute roses are fun to make - and easy-peasy! Fabric versions of these puppies sell in stores for upwards of $20!

I still need add some bling to the middles. I used the horoscope page. Painted one side hot pink and the other bright red. Glued some pink micro beads to some petals. Not sure I like the effect, as the newsprint is matte. The 2nd one (on the keychain) is really a tag from my handbag. The flat rectangle made a great base for gluing the petals.

Try these - they're fun and relaxing to make!
