Tip of the Week

Paper roses and flowers are becoming a popular embellishment for scrapbook pages and other artistic creations.  You can make a quick paper rose by simply cutting a circle into a spiral and and misting the paper with some water out of a squirt bottle.  With the damp paper start to twist the paper while shaping it into a spiral (tightly wound and glue the edges).  You can ink the tips of the rose bud to make it stand out more.  Adhere the rose to the page with a strong adhesive such as glue dots either alone or over some paper leaves.  This is a simple yet elegant embellishment that will add glamour to a page layout.
