Thinking of You Roses by Niccole

Hello Ai fans!!

I am stopping by today to share a card I made using the Roses stamp set from Art Impressions sold exclusively at Scrapbook.com.  

Isn't this a beautiful image of a bouquet of roses?  I like that takes up most of a card front without being overpowering.

I started by trimming my Strathmore Watercolor paper to 4.25" x 4.25" and heat embossing my roses.  I used my Color Bursts to watercolor the roses.  I then added it to my Neenah Desert Storm card base, which I trimmed so I could angle my watercolor piece and have it still fit in an A2 envelope. I glued it to my base.  

I wanted to keep my sentiment rather vague so it could be used for a multitude of occasions.  This "Thinking of You" stamp from the set fit in the corner perfectly.  I used my rectangle die to cut out the hunter green paper and frame my roses. 

Here is one more look at the finished card.  I love the look of the loose watercolor.  I like the organic feel it gives the roses. 

Thank you so much for stopping by and spending a little time with me.  Make sure you come back soon to the Ai blog and see what the team has been up to.  

No Copics used this time, only Color Bursts.

Until next time ... Hugs & inky fingers!
