Everything Rosy?


Hello my friends.  So sorry I have been MIA but it has been such a busy time with no a Snippet of time to craft.  I did get time to play along with a few challenges today at Splitcoast.  One was the CAS challenge..a sketch and the other was a TLC Make Polka Dots which are kind of hard to see on my card but I added them onto the leaves.  Today is also the last day for the big challenges going on at Moxie Fab so I am entering this one in the Focal Point challenge.  The stamp set I used for the flower is from Stampin Up and the sentiment is from Stampotique.  Used Distress inks to colour the flowers and added the scoring and washi tape as well.
Hope you are having a great Monday....I am just so happy to have time to stamp.
Hope you can come back on Wednesday for the OLW as I am hosting this week.

Supplies:  stamps; Stampin Up Mixed Bouquet, Stampotique/ Distress inks/ Washi tape/ pearls/ pop dots

EDIT ADDED:  I was thrilled to find out that my card was a finalist in the Moxie Fab challenge seen HERE!!
thanks so much for all the wonderful and very appreciated emails

  4. This is wonderful!! I have that set but it hasn't seen the light of day in ages because I've never made anything that I liked. But I LOVE what you have done with it!

  15. Great card! How do you get the ink to appear darker on the inside and fade as you get to the outer edges of the flower? I have tried with very little success. I may be contacted at lynn.wollenberg@frontier.com. Thanks.
