A Simple Rose Birthday Card!
Hello everyone! We are clearly in the dog days of summer...already! It's so hot! Our garden is thriving and we are trying to do the outdoor stuff in the early mornings and then come inside where is nice and cool and do some crafting (after indoor chores are done)! Thank you for stopping by, we are so glad you did!
This card was so much fun to make! I love to color, I always have! Coloring is therapeutic for me and coloring stamped images is like the adult versions of coloring books but you get to pick what images you want to color then put them on a project... and I love it! Roses always have such rich and vibrant colors and I really wanted to try to capture that vibrancy! I found and cut some patterned paper from our scrap papers collection using one of the sketches from Kendra's Card Challenges #22 as my guide for the layout! placed the colored rose image on some foam square to pop it up and stamped the sentiment. I loved how this card turned out!
Here is the card:
