Rose Easel Card





Hey guys!! Thanks for stopping by!! Well,I made a rose out of the ornament punch from Stampin' Up!. I have seen these around on other blogs and stuff and I thought I'd give it a go!! I have a loyal customer on my Etsy who is always having me do a custom order for her. Anyways,she needed a rose card and wanted me to put a saying on the inside and the outside....so I used my computer for that part. I did modify the way other people have done there roses a bit. Basically the base is the same....but instead of the inside like the ones I've seen....I played around until I could get a 'flatter' look....it seemed too bulky or high to be able to mail or even fit in an envelope...so I just played with it a bit until I felt like I looked OK!! I hope you like it and more so ,I hope my customer loves it!! Here is the deets on the card!! See ya'!
Recipe for card:
  • Card stocks: Blush Blossom,Regal Rose,Rose Red,and Old Olive
  • inks: Always Artichoke,Regal Rose,Rose Red,and Close to Cocoa
  • Large and scalloped oval punches and Ornament punch
  • Ribbon from Stash
  • Textile cuttlebug folder
  • StoryBook Cartridge for Cricut Expression(layered swirly mat)

Wowzers! How couldn't she?! It's gorgeous!! I hadn't seen that rose done before but now it makes me wish I'd gotten the ornament punch. Oh well. It'll probably be in the next catty. ;)
