I love visiting blogs and getting stamping ideas! This one is called "smooshing" and I think it makes the roses appear more realistic - what do you think? I learned the technique from Emily (http://emilygiovanni.com/?p=599). I made this for a friend's grandmother; her middle name is Rose; hence the reasoning behind the card!
The base of the card is SU Marigold, layered with SU Apricot Appeal, layered with Whisper White. The Whisper White is edged with Marigold.
The roses are made using the Marigold, Apricot Appeal and Pumpkin Pie. The leaves are done with True Thyme, stamped off 2 times before applying. I don't normally work with these colors, but I'm very pleased with the way it turned out and I hope her grandmother loves it!

Very pretty! I like the color combination and the wrought iron corner adds elegance to the card. Wonderful job on this, I'm sure your friend's grandmother will love it!
