I used the Stampin Up Spiral Flower Die to make roughly 85 roses for each tree. Once these were made and shaped they were stuck on to a solid polystyrene ball size 120mm using a glue gun. A 12mm wide dowel was coloured with Early Expresso Ink and Alway Artichoke ink from Stampin Up then inserted into the polystyrene ball. I used 10cm tall metal buckets in beige for both trees The trees were set into plaster of paris casting powder, held whilst dry this took about 20 minutes to set I then decorated over the plaster with cream decorative gravel. Finished off making satin ribbon bows to match with the colours of the trees.
