Rolled Rose Flower from Stencil Elements

A project from our live show Brand Showcase in the HTCN studios - PEARLYWINKS - broadcast Friday 25th Feb 22 - 1st show · 25/02/2022 · watch it from 31:00

Build a dimensional rose by folding and wrapping propeller elements from the stencil around each other, starting with a tight bud in the centre and gradually opening the petals outward. This creates a realistic, layered rose focal point.

Step by step

1. Cut out multiple propeller elements from the Mandala Mayhem stencil in varying sizes. ▶ watch 31:00
2. Take the smallest propeller element and fold the wings inward to create a tight centre bud. ▶ watch 31:15
3. Wrap the folded element around itself and glue it down to secure the bud shape. ▶ watch 31:30
4. Take the next size propeller element and fold its wings inward. ▶ watch 31:45
5. Wrap this element around the centre bud in the opposite direction and glue it down. ▶ watch 32:00
6. Continue adding larger propeller elements, gradually twisting the petals outward as you build outward. ▶ watch 32:15
7. Offset each new layer at opposite angles to create a natural, spiralling rose shape. ▶ watch 32:30
8. Keep building outward with increasingly larger elements until you reach your desired rose size. ▶ watch 32:45
9. For smaller roses, snip into the centre of a propeller element and fold the petals inward. ▶ watch 33:00
10. Use the small roses as steppers or accents around your larger focal rose. ▶ watch 33:15

Tips from the show

• Twist the petals in opposite directions as you build outward to create a realistic, opening rose effect.
• You can create roses in multiple sizes using different propeller elements from the same stencil.
• Small roses made by snipping and folding work beautifully as steppers or accent flowers on cards.
