I thought i'd just pop a quick little post in here and show you how I coloured the roses that I used in my Tute+1 Challenge layout.

Image

I have once again used my distress markers along with a water brush..

Take your white flower, and roughly colour your petals. Use different shades to give it a blended tonal look..

Image

Take your water brush and brush the petals with water to blend the colours together......

Image

Ta Da you once again have a flower that matches the colour scheme of your layout perfectly!

These Prima Tivona Roses are the flowers i've used
