PENNY BLACK ROSE


Saturday I was determined to spend some time at my craft table and this is one of the cards I made.  I had a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" cardstock so I first used the die with the circles to that design.  I knew I wanted to add a flower over the circles and found that I already had a white rose cut.  I sponged it with a Coral ink by masking off the green areas with pieces of Post-It notes.  Then I covered the bud with Post-It pieces first sponging a light yellow and then green over it.

I placed the rose over the circles but I knew I wanted a contrast for the circles to show up so I added a piece of shiny gold card stock and taped it down.  After adding the Rose with a spray adhesive, that layer was added to the card base with foam squares.  There was still a lot of white space so I added the flat gold metallic pieces in the corners.

I really like how this card came together.  Thanks for coming by today!
