Thank you!! I mixed 50/50 Cyclamen coloured flowerpaste and Poppy Red Regalice to make the modelling paste (I gave up on the idea of doing proper flowerpaste roses, I'm just too inexperienced to do that many without it taking too long, was worried about running out of time before I'd done enough!) and then boosted the colour with Ruby paste colour - even starting with it quite dark I still had to use loads to get it right and had red hands for days! I ran out of the red before I'd done what I thought would be enough and had to do some in ivory but I'm quite glad I did because I think they set it off really well
