I make this type of card when I need one for friends and family...
The background die cut is from Marianne design LR0240.
I sponged the embossing parts of the frame and also the white leaves with Versafine "imperial purple".
I made a cluster of rolled roses (LR0160) in three shades of purple and white cardstock.
The leaves under the flower arrangement are punched and embossed with the Floral punch from Nellie Snellen.
The cross is a die cut from Cottage Cutz : filigree Cross, matted on lighter purple cardstock.
The white die cut corners on my card are from Provo Craft.
Accessories: Big Shot/ Cottage Cutz: Filigree cross/ Marianne Design:LR0240 -Large oval by Petra and English rose - LR0162/ Nellie Snellen: Floral punch: leaves/ Foam dots/Sponge dauber
Techniques: Making rolled roses- Sponging- Die cutting- Punching and dry embossing
