Day 1 of The 10 Crafts of Christmas Rosette Tree


Supplies:
Book paper
Paper trimmer
Something to score with
Pine Needles Distress Ink
Gold embossing powder
Pearls

Step 1: Score book paper at 1/2" increments all the way down the page. Cut paper down by about 1/2"  for each new tier. Large tiers will require multiple book pages to form a circle.
Step 2: Fold on pleats to make accordion.
Step 3: Glue pleats as needed to form circle.
Step 4: Hot glue rosette to punched or cut circle
Step 5: Ink edges with green ink.
Step 6: Punch star shape.
Step 7: Emboss star with embossing powder.
Step 8: Glue tiers together larges to smallest to form tree.
Step 9: Glue star on top.
Step 10: Glue pearls randomly around each tier.
This project wasn't difficult but it was time consuming. I sat in front of the TV making the rosettes. So day one is down and I'm hoping the videos go a little faster next time. I always seem to run into some kind of problem making them. Anyway, I would love to know what you think.
