Best wishes

I have an svg file for cutting rolled roses on my cricut, but it doesn't work so well with felt.  That's because you need to use something like heat n bond to stiffen the felt before the cricut will cut it - ok if your felt item is going to be glued down, but not so useful if you want to roll it up!

Long story short, I ended up buying one of the rolled flower dies from MFT - My Favorite Things. The die cuts very well - even using a scrap of craft store felt for this one.

Just because bling

Here's another card which didn't get picked up by Cards Magazine in a recent publication call. I just love these colours (inspired by Crate Paper's Restoration line) and these flower rosettes are super easy to make.  Gather ribbon (using a running stich close to one edge) and layer it on a circle die cut.  I adhered mine using scor tape but you could use fabric glue. Out a button or brad in the centre and you're done :)
