Sending You Roses

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card -


For the background, I ran a piece of Baby Pink Card through the Spellbinders Platinum Machine with the Creative Expressions Wild Roses Embossing Folder.

I cut Sue' Wilson's Lattice Window Striplet out 3 times, cutting the plain dies out of Baby Pink Card and the decorative dies with their plain partner out of Chestnut Card.

I stamped the sentiment from John Lockwood's Scribble Rose Elements Stamp Set onto Baby Pink Card using Coffee Archival. I cut tit out using a die from Sue's Zoe Die Set. I cut the largest die in the set out of Baby Pink Card and the largest 2 dies together out of Chestnut Card. I glued the die cuts together and added my sentiment piece.

I tied a bow using 2 lengths of Pink/Brown Solid Centre Band Satin Ribbon. I cut a rose out of Baby Pink and Chestnut Card using Sue's Blushing Rose Die Set.

I assembled the card as shown piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

Just a reminder that Sue continues with her One Day Special on Hochanda today with shows at 9am, 12noon, 4pm and 7pm. There's a 10% discount running on the items I have in stock from the shows on my website here till Midnight tonight.

    Morning Julia, I am loving today's card, which is very similar to the one Sue demo'd last night on Hochanda, what a great show it was too. I love the colours you have used especially matching the ribbon as well.

    Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

    An interesting colour combinations which is not showing up well on my iPad but I suspect it is gorgeous. Wasn't sure about this lattice window when I first saw it but am rapidly coming to the conclusion that it has a lot to offer.

    Hi Julia
    Beautiful card & love the pink & chocolate colour which looks stunning.
    I must say it's so refreshing to see different colours because we tend to stick to our favourite ones most of the time.

    Beautiful card as always.
