A Rosette is a rosette is a rosette...

 ....or is it? When I purchased this Memory Box die to make rosettes, I really thought, this has very limited uses, but the more I play, the more ways I find to use the rosette die! First, let me say that the die works wonderfully! The score lines work great. The center piece could be used for a lot of things also.
 To make the larger rosette above left, I simply put two pieces together. I also saw an owl in Crafts and Things Magazine with the eyes made with rosettes. I have also seen Christmas trees made with graduated sizes of rosettes.
 I designed the turkey above out of Perler beads and then used a rosette to make the tail feathers...isn't he fun? A striped paper would be great for this purpose also.
These are addictive...I would love to hear any ideas you might have!
