I'm trying to be a lady... 
I tried for about 2 hours to make bc roses today.
The edges are all wrong for starters. I tried opening the tip, I tried adding corn syrup to the icing, I tried making it stiffer by adding ps, I tried making it thinner by adding water.
Any suggestions? I watched that video about how to make them and I still can't get it.
1st icing consistancy is very important
2 are you turning the nail or only moving the
you have to do 3 motions at a time.
turn the nail squeeze the bag and lift
I kinda think your icing may be a bit too stiff.
well, i think part of it is using green, they'll look better in a different color. as for the edges, maybe try making the roses "faster". i've found if i go too slow with a petal and don't squeeze hard enough (but not too hard) they fray more. i think it's hard to get rid of all the fraying. try adding piping gel or corn syrup again. 
just try another day when you aren't so frustrated
PS I forgot to mention once you master the rose and your edges are good, Your Roses will be very pretty. BTW I love the GREEN color!
Don't panic..keep practicing!!!
If this stuff was so easy everyone would be doing it.. 
Seriously...practice...you will get it.
The roses started out pink but turned green with envy of a normal looking rose 
Only kidding, I had some left over green and decided to practice with that.
I have days like that .... I agree ... try again another day when you are not so frustrated ... I also find that when I'm PMSing I'm clumsier and it's harder for me to do what I need to do
melc i was just thinking that lol.. it could be ur icing.. believe it or not i havent tired to do the roses so im sure mine will look like that too..maybe try it another day
That's so funny about the cabbages! I was thinking the same thing as I was making them.
Isn't there a cabbage rose? Maybe I could pass them off as those?????
