A Red Rose Of Thanks

6/12/2018

It is the time you have spent on your rose that makes her so important.

Hi! And welcome to HeartcraftPaper. I'm so glad that you all could join me today.

For the Day 9 Challenge I showed you how to color in a rose using Distress Inks (click on the link provided for details on how to make the rose). I decided that I would use that rose for a card. It was perfect for a CAS card.

A card that does not require much technique to make it and is clean and simple (CAS).

White cardstock 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Craft cardstock 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Flowers In Bloom Stamp Set (large rose)
Stud Dot Argyle Background Die
SSS Stitched Banner Wager Dies
Thanks & Thank You Dies
Tacky Glue
Printed Pink Striped paper
Black cardstock
Pink Vellum
Nuvo Crystal Crops: White & Clear
A2 Card Base

Now that we have everything that we need we are ready to begin.

1. Die cut your craft card stock using the Stud Dot Argyle Background Die by Gina Marie Designs. Glue this down to the white cardstock.

This is a wonderful die because it allows color to peek through the dots or you can even use colored floss to stitch it through for added color.

2. Die cut the pink striped paper using the banner die from Simon Says Stamp. This is the second smallest of the set. Glue this down on the lower third of the background piece.

3. Using the rose that was colored in with distress ink in my Day 9 blog post, glue this on top o the banner on the left side.

4. Die cut the 'Thanks' sentiment from the black cardstock and the dropshadow using pink vellum. Then glue down the thanks onto the backdrop as depicted below.

5. Center and glue the sentiment piece to the background piece, so that it floats above the banner and rose.

6. Now add in a couple of Nuvo drops here and there as a final touch. I used white on the craft paper and clear on my rose.

Fini!

I hope that I have provided some inspiration. Don't forget to join the HeartcraftPaper Gallery Group. Until next time.
