A rose by any other name

Well it's been wet and miserable for the past few days, but it's given me a chance to crack on with a few jobs that weren't possible in exam period. I learnt how to make roses out of ribbon yesterday, and it's surprisingly simple! This one (and many more like it) are going to go on my friend's wedding cake this summer. Here's the link to the tutorial - try it and see how easy it is!
