DD & I went to Pat Catan's (why do I forget that store in here??) tonight & I got this pretty rose stamp for $2! I knew then I'd use it for today's IC, Roses and Teacups. I was not inspired by any one thing as I had a hard time navigating the site - kept getting some scrip error, but I did see pinks, greens, roses, pearls, & ribbons. So that was my inspiration.
I use the Victorian cuttlebug ef & nesties label 9. I colored the image w/ pencils & the gamsol technique, but using baby oil. Added some offray ribbon called tracks & some Kaiser pearls, popped the image up & called it finished.
Thanks for another wonderful inspiration site.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Woohoo, congratulations Karen!! I almost never get a chance to participate in the QFTD Friday challenge but had to play when I saw that you were chosen. I love all of your cards so it was very hard to pick just one. I chose this very beautiful card of yours to case today. Enjoy your special day, Queen Karen!
