Rosette Cards

Not too long ago I posted Mickey Rosettes.  I made these the old fashioned way and they were a little tedious.  I got the Accordian Fold Rosette SVG set from Lettering Delights and it was so worth it.  I cut out two, one in glitter CS from target and one from a heavy weight pattern paper (can't remember whether it's from DCWV, M&MBI, or AC).  They both cut nice and folded easily.  I did have a little trouble with the glitter paper but that was mostly due to my inattention.  Even with user error I was still able to assemble it faster than if done by hand.
Now that I had these two rosettes I needed to do something with them.  I have a bunch of card blanks I make up when I run up against artist block so I took a couple out and my scraps and went to work.

Shape card is a blackout from storybook cart folded in half and embossed with swiss dots.  edges inked with broken china.  center medallion is made with UTEE, see this post for details. 

Gate fold card.  again the handy dandy swiss dots was used.  center another UTEE medallion layered over a homemade 'prima' (how to will be in a future post but youtube is full of tutorials)

when I showed my son this was how you open the card he thought it was so cool.
