To Make the Rolled Rose

[ Adapted from my book How to Make 100 Paper Flowers Credits: Creative Publishers International]

I used this simple technique to create Gold Bullion like roses,

Step 1. Draw a spiral onto the gold paper, preferably using a pencil, I used a marker to make it more visible. Make sure to have a rounded base in the center to place the bullion roses in the end.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”955″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”img_link_large” img_link_target=”_blank” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Step 2.
