another card for JulieHRR, todays featured stamper. I chose this beauty to case
the rose is stamped, cut out and spritzed with water, then roll the edges a bit and let dry.. sponge some extra color on the rolled edges and voila... paper tole 3D rose.
the leaves are from flourishes.
I didn't have any lace for the center strip so I made a lacy look with the new martha tiny heart border punch. and added my ribbon.
I changed the colors, added swirls and gold cording.
thanks Julie for the inspiration for another card!
thanks for stopping by today!

This would be a beautiful card even if the flower was just a flat rose. However, your very creative and artistic 3-D rose makes it Over-The-Top, Out-Of-This-World, FAN-TAS-TIC!!!!!!! It's going straight to my faves.
