Rosey Card !

Hello Friends,
I'm here today with a Card made for the Challenge over at Virginia's View Challenge Blog - Ombre/Monochromatic Challenge !


Well I have used my most Favourite Stamp Set 'Vintage Roses" by Alt & New for the roses.
And the 'Sohcatoa' Set for the sentiment !
At first I used my Misti Tool (I love using it so much) to stamp & layer the roses using my Inks from Prima Chalk inks, Memento Dye Inks & Hero Arts Shadow Inks.
After stamping, I paper pieced the roses & leaves  and kept them aside.
Next i took 4"x6" Neenah Solar White Cardstock & did some stenciling.
I used the Mini Aztec Stencils by Crafter's Workshop - Balzer Designs, Embossing Paste by Wendy Vecchi in white, Distress Inks - Picked Raspberry & Worn Lipstick. I created three different batches in different shades of pink from dark to light. After creating the stenciled background, I added some silver thread & then I arranged my flowers using Foam dots to give them some dimension. After that I heat embossed the sentiment on a piece of black cardstock with Stampendous Detail White Embossing Powder & snipped the ends of to make it into a banner. I stuck it beneath one of the petals. To balance the Black sentiment piece I added a thin strip of black CS to one side of the card.
Lastly, I added some white &pink flat back adhesive pearls here & there & Brushed some Clear Wink Of Stella on my Roses for the extra touch ! I then mounted this piece on a 4 1/4" x 61/2" top folding card !
