I have seen paper rosettes and they are just gorgeous. I have attempted to make a few paper rosettes and they were nowhere close to gorgeous. They seemed to be a lot of work for a not so pretty result. Thanks to Tim Holtz, that has changed. I was in Archivers the other day and they had the Tim Holtz die to make the paper rosettes. I had a coupon, so I purchased it. As my granddaughter would say, "easy peasy"! The die is perforated every quarter inch, so it is easy to fold and I am not scoring a 12 inch strip of paper every quarter inch. The finished rosette is approximately 2 5/8". Now I need to see what I need to do in order to make smaller rosettes and larger rosettes. But that will be done when I find myself a little stampin' time on another day--lol!
