Rose Wreath - Flourishes Timeless Tuesday #63


It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC63)! This week Cindy Haffner is hosting. She is challenging us to a sketch she has designed. As far as sketches go, there is not much of an explanation necessary. You can turn it and modify the shapes to fit your size card, but in the end, it should still look like the sketch. Good Luck!!! We cannot wait to see what you do with it!

For my card I chose to use an image from Seasonal Wreaths. My roses, that are just starting to bloom, were my inspiration for choosing this image. I stamped it on Classic White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, colored it with Copic markers, and cut/embossed with Classic Circle Nestabilities. I'm using patterned paper from Graphic 45's Romantique 8 x 8 pad and Basic Black, Blush Blossom run through my Cuttlebug with the Textile embossing folder), and Mellow Moss card stock. I added a sheer black ribbon, some black jewels and the sentiment, and it was done!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to go see what the rest of the FTTC team have done with this sketch!
