IBSIC #44 All Roses Wreath

 This week's IBSIC has a lovely photo to inspire you!  Joanna is also offering up blog candy the first of next month for a $25 gift certificate to the IBS store!  I was inspired so much by the photo I finally made a rolled roses wreath I've been wanting to do for quite some time now.
I used my Cricut and the Artiste cartridge to cut all my flowers. I cut them at 3" and made a total of 18. I know I am super late to the game on discovering that Ranger's Glossy Accents is a fabulous adhesive!! I was actually very pleasantly shocked to discover how much of a great liquid glue it is and how quickly to takes hold and dries. Rolled flowers can be a challenge to keep together but the Glossy Accents did a fantastic job and I'm hooked. I added a tiny pearl to the center of each rose also using Glossy Accents. Then I hot glued them all onto my wreath base, added some ribbon and have it displayed in my hutch:)  I hope you will come play this week over at the IBSIC blog...you could be a guest designer! Thanks for stopping by today.
