[in Harmony with Jesus]

For the "rose" (the red one you can't see very well in my last set of pics) I inflate about 3/4 of the way bc you end up cutting off the end of this one. Start w/ the knot end & make a small (about 3 inch) 3 bubble roll or "bird body" (You do this by twisting 2 bubbles, lock twisting them together, make a 3rd bubble the same size & roll it through the other 2). Then just make 3 soft loops at the base of the 3 bubble roll & sort of push them up around each bubble in the roll. Make a small pinch twist, pop & tie the rest. Now, the stem of this can be done like the normal stem, but I like to add a little extra to my rose. I make 3 small loops (smaller than the ones on the actualy flower) at the knot end of my stem balloon. This becomes the leaves at the base of the rose. You can make these loops soft enough to sort of pinch & shape them almost to a point & it looks really neat. From there you can make the normal leaves or just leave it straight. Either usually looks good. I'll have to make one & post some pics soon. It will probably be sometime next week, but I'll get it up.
