Thanks and Roses

Photo Details

Poster: ravengirl

I made this card for the current Verve Diva Dare, Sentimental About Paper. The challenge was to use only a sentiment and then some pretty paper! I got really sentimental about some paper in my stash and hauled out somed older Basic Grey. It was too pretty to cover up, so I went with a simple sketch and a simple Verve sentiment!

Thanks for looking!
