Good Morning Folks. Its blue skies here at the moment ,but still a nip in the air. To-day I want to show a box I made, so that I could put my latest Rose creation on the top. I was like a kid in a sweet shop when my new Susan Tierney Cockburn dies and flower tool kit arrived from
Country View Crafts. So everything else was put on hold till I made the rose. I think maybe I should have added some more petals as fillers, as it was not till I saw the pictures that it looks a wee bitty sparse in some places. Once I had finished I gave it a spray with Spray &Sparkle ( iridescent ). My box is a 4" X 4" so it gives you an idea of the size of the Rose..
I think most of you know my how much I love making flowers and this one really is my favourite at the moment. Any comments regarding the fullness of the rose would be really helpful.
I'm having my Son-in-law and Molly & Hamish to stay to-morrow night as Dad is running a race in Arran on Saturday. Hopefully it stays dry for the runners. Goatfell had snow on the peak yestrday. Hope you all have a creative day. Hugs Rita xxx

Beautiful Rita,stunning rose.xxx
Rita I saw on someone's blog that you were waiting for this die to arrive lol.... well glad it came and what you have done with it is amazing!!! Susan's flowers just look so realistic, all other dies just don't come close. I think for the size of box, this one is perfect! I think if you had added more petals it might have been a bit too overpowering.., so I for one thinks this is just right!
This is a fabulous rose Rita. Looks great on your box, and I do not think it is sparse either. Christine xx
Oh my Rita - what a beautiful flower - have to nip over and have a look at these - your box is stunning xx
Your rose is beautiful. Anne x
This is beautiful and would make a lovely gift. Real roses do vary in the amount of petals and this one is fine as it is.

Hi Rita, what a stunning flower, I really don't think it needs any more petals at all, it looks very realistic as it is. I got the poppy and mini daisy dies and they are really lovely too, but I love your rose......... Hugs, Anne x

I think Astrid's right that - for the size of the box - the rose is perfect. So realistic, and so beautiful! I agree with Annie too... How Does Your Garden Grow at Country View Challenges (appropriate given where you got the die from!) and/or Blooming Marvellous at Artful Times - perfect for this!

Hi Rita,
superb box and a superb rose to go with it. I think your rose is just fine, and looks very real, just like a real rose sitting proud of the box.
