Rose Ball

I wanted to share a project with you on how I got rid of a great deal of retired DSP. I usually just sell any DSP paper packs that I have barely or never used. This time I ended up with tons of very used DSP paper packs, so I had decided to keep them around to use whenever I create a 3D project (scratch paper for making templates). When the new spiral rose die came out, it hit me that I could just keep making roses with the retired paper. After finishing all the red and pink DSP paper for making roses. Initially, I wanted to make a 12" wreath, but got bored of making roses and really wanted to get something made so the flowers were not just sitting around. Here are a couple of topiary balls I made with most of the flowers I had prepared.
