Wine lovers always do the ripe thing

Hello there,

Here is a card I made with an image I had stamped a while ago. It is a Tara Reed stamp from Stamps Happen and I have used my Faber Castell water colour pencils to colour it. The rose has been made by yours truly in those rose making days of mine while the tiny flowers have been punched, I have the negative of a Spellbinder nestie and sponged that layer with Tim Holtz peeled paint. The background of the image was first stamped with a block using TH milled lavender (I think as it was a while ago). The ribbons are from my stash and the flourish is from Sizzix. The tiny ferns have been sponged with TH forest moss.



I am going to submit this card for the following challenges:

Wish you a pleasant weekend.

Love,

Monica

Hi, Monica! I am very happy you made this card! Not only is it beautiful to see, but you have given me an idea of how to use some cardstock I was not able to use. The color in my CS is garish. But if I ink it like you did your cs, it will change the color and retain the texture! DUH! Why didn't I think of that? Your bow looks very pretty. Bows are hard for me to do. This one looks perfect, and very soft texture. Love the tiny flowers, to match the grapes! hugs, de
