FTTC103 - roses

Hallo,
Getting a bit of stamping time today (after sleeping for a bit as I worked last night...) The kiddos are preparing to have company tonight to play video games as a Birthday party for my DD.
I did this for this weeks Timeless Tuesday challenge over at Flourishes - the challenge is to make a Valentines card. What better for Valentines than roses !!! Check it out here - www.flourishes.org/blog/

I embossed the stamp with gold powder and then colored with copics (be careful copics don't always like embossing powder - try not to color over the embossing...). The middle panel is a gold textured cardstock and the DP also has gold embossing on it. The base cardstock is a light pink.
All for now - I am going to try and get a few more cards done for challenges tonight :)
Have a great weekend!!!

Rose Bear

Hallo,

I have a sweet Valentines day card for you today that I am entering in 2 challenges.

First was for this month's Guest Designer spot for My Favorite Things.

The challenge was for - only 1 designer paper, 2 different cardstocks (in addition to a neutral base) and 3 different embellishements (not just 3 embellishments - 3 DIFFERENT ones...)

Well my 1 DP is my paper pieced bear with a really pretty rose flower paper.

My 2 cardstocks are the 2 hearts cut from 2 different 'Coredinations' paper - cut and embossed with 'Spellbinders' dies and then lightly sanded to show the core color.

My 3 different embellishments are 1-ribbon (I used 2 layered on top of each other), 2-the slider that says 'in love' and #3 are the pink rhinestones.

Check out the MFT forum over at SCS for more of the challenge results and check out the MFT blog and shop for the newest release (as of last night :) - lots of yummy stuff!!!

I colored her with copics and layered everything to kraft cardstock.
Now I am off to get groceries and do some housework and then reward myself with some crafting time!!!!
Take Care
