Create a beautiful dimensional floral design featuring layered roses in soft purple and pink tones with delicate green leaves. Using a five-layer stencil system with coordinating inks, you'll build up realistic depth and shading to achieve a watercolour-style painted effect. This elegant technique produces stunning results perfect for cards and papercrafts.
Prepare three pieces of white card stock to create multiple roses at once. Have your ink pads ready - one black and one light blue.
