1. Making the Roses Part 1
For the full tutorial see Chevron Silver Leaf Wedding Cake
Paul uses a very simple but effective method that will allow you to make pretty roses, fast. There are some similar techniques used in this lesson that were used for the peonies, but there is a treat in store for you that was passed on to Paul from the very talented Mrs. Jones! It only takes seconds to do but adds great volume and realism to the overall look of the rose. And it’s all done with a toothpick and a ball tool, believe it or not.

2. Making the Roses Part 2
Now that Paul has made the petals, it’s time to assemble the rose. This is a very straight forward process and you can add as many petals as you feel make it look realistic and aesthetically pleasing.

3. Dusting the Roses
Now it’s back to the flowers and adding the finishing touches, which is always fun! Paul dusts the edges of the roses’ petals with some dusky pink mixed with some fuchsia to give a slightly brighter touch.
