This started to be a card for Beate's WSC Blogs at Splitcoaststampers, but you can see how very similar it is to StamperTammy's Wild Rose card here ... CC89-Cranberry Roses by stampertammy at Splitcoaststampers. (what a great and extensive gallery! Beautiful work!)...so I wouldn't call it a PURE case of our wonderful featured stamper...but a close sister
Same: layout for the roses is almost exactly the same and so is the upper greeting.
Different: Mine is a 5 x 5 square card, different color combo, different background and lots of extra sparkle added...which doesn't really show up in the picture.
My mom asked me to make a card and candle for my Aunt's 75 Birthday this next week...I started with the card. I wanted to make something really over the top for such a special occasion. I cut out several of the roses, shaped them and mounted them on dimensionals and glue dots and used Crystal Effects and glitter.The Floral BK layer is stamped with Creamy Caramel Craft and embossed with Iridescent Ice. It was really hard to photograph it to get a picture of the dimension, so sorry for the weird angle...
Thanks for looking! I'm off to bed!

Wow, this is stunning! Are your stitches real, faux or stamped? That detail just looks amazing! And thanks for the great idea of using the wider ribbon with the HPH buckle. I never like how those look with the thinner grosgrain, and never thought to use it with the wider ribbon! Wonderful card! Thanks for CASE'ing me today!
