Happy Hump Day Peeps!!!
The card I am sharing today is not made with any sketch or challenge at all........gasp, I know, but I had borrowed this set from a friend and wanted to use it so I would know if I wanted to get it myself, well I DO NEED it and I DO WANT it.......LOL!!!
I do have to tell you tho, if you don't like to use the stamp a ma jig, this set might not be for you. Also, on this card anyway, I did alot of cutting. The base of the card is chocolate chip and that is followed by some whisper white. The regal rose DS paper is from a retired hostess print pack.
I cut a top note die with whisper white to mount the flowers on. I used pretty in pink and regal rose ink for the roses. The leaves are stamped with old olive and always artichoke ink. I stamped the sentiment, from the sale-a-bration "Whimsical Words" stamp set, with regal rose ink. This would be a great "mailable" card because I didn't add any bling or ribbon, I don't think it needed it, those flowers are amazing all by themselves. I also finished the inside of the card, I usually do, with some white card stock and DS paper that matches, nothing to interesting but I thought I would show you this one:
The inside:
I left it blank to add a sentiment later or a personal message depending on how I decide to use it.
I think the roses are very "vintage" looking.....don't you?
Well, that is all from me today, thanks so much for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!!

Beautiful card Vicki! This is also one of favorite stamp sets. Thanks for sharing.
Who knew you were such a wonderful flower arranger too, Vicki LOL! Gorgeous work on the roses and leaves! You'll have to charge your friend an enabling fee ;o) Gorgeous card. Love the colours!
Also one of my favourite sets. I have make so many of these roses in different colours I've lost count. Somehow the extra cutting that has to be done is well worth it. I have some pictures of them on my blog. Have a look.
You did a great job and I love the delicate pink colour.
Oh my is this lovely!!
I love this stamp set too....... it is gorgeous in any colour, but I think you've chosen the perfect ones to show it off........ TFS!

This is so beautiful. I love the softness of the color and the simplicity of the design. Very nice work!
Beautiful is all I can say. Just beautiful. You have a way to make stamps sing. Awesome card.
Both of these cards are very beautiful. I still love the 2 step stamping, but don't get to it as often as I should...guess I'll have to do that soon! So so pretty!
This is really beautiful, Vicki!
