This is gonna be short and sweet "Aye right" I hear you snort!!  No honest.....it really is a short post.  I just wanna see if this works for a start as I may start to do video tutorials for those who like to see things being done in real time and not in a million photos!  So, this is a quick wee video just of the last flower I did, the Peace Rose.
