I’ve been practicing my watercoloring leading up to today’s card. I stamped and gold-embossed one of the single roses from the Spring Roses set. Using markers and a water brush, I colored it in – adding a couple of highlights with a white gel pen. I cut out and popped up the rose and leaves onto some DP from Basic Grey’s Blush paper pad, which I had cut out using the Nestabilities Labels One die – matted in gold. The wine-colored sheer ribbon and fancy brad added a touch of elegance.

Visit the rest of the design team and comment on each blog for a chance to win two new stamp sets.
