Hi friends!
It's time for a new challenge at Beautiful Blossoms Challenge Blog! Our one month long challenge is "Anything Floral Goes / Inspired by the Photo". The photo, this time a wonderful bouquet of roses, is below for you to admire!
In my card I used all Honey Bee Stamps products this time. The Sweetheart Roses die is one of my all time favorites and I've used it many many times already. The Chinoiserie 3d embossing folder I'm using for the first time and it is so beautiful! The window die and sentiment are all by Honey Bee as well.
I cut the rose petals from various colors of card stock and when the assembly was ready, they looked absolutely crazy and not cohesive or beautiful at all lol. I decided to try to fix the situation by giving the roses a wash of watercolor to "merge" all the card stocks together and that worked out beautifully! I was very happy with the results in both the orange and the red roses. Love the romantic feel of this card and all the detail in the die cuts and embossing folder!
I'd like to join:
A Cut Above: Anything Goes
Allsorts: Anything Goes from the Garden
