You know what is nice about these type of challenges? Not feeling guilty about not using any sort of accesory, or feeling the need to use all that cool stuff that I have, just to make a card. I get to go back to the Basics!
I haven't used this set in a while. I bought this set INSTEAD of Baroque Motifs, because I thought I would be different...of course later on I got Baroque Motifs anyway. lol. So, when tearing the Regal Rose and Rose Red papers, I tried to line them up together to get some uniformity, but it is still not quite the same. Then I did the Very Vanilla layer separately. I tore first, then stamped. I used that curly stamp for the Regal Rose layer, but wishing now I had just left it blank, as you can hardly see it anyway. I stamped the flowers separately, then cut them out with scissors.To add the multiple colors, I inked the stamp in the lighter color first, then used the edge of the darker ink pad to move color inwards towards the center of the flower, to give it a little more dimension in color. I used dimensionals to pop up the flowers.
Overall I enjoyed making this card. I need more limiting challenges, I think it makes it easier for me to create something. :-)
