Rose Wreath (by Julie)

Hello, today it is my turn to show you two of my creations from Chocolate Baroque's June   Hochanda TV show's.

My first card is stamped with the Rose and Thistle set. 

To start with I stamped the central heart design onto spare card, before colouring with Polychromus pencils and then die cutting with a circle die.

For the base card I stamped the larger rose bud stamp in an overlapping circle design to form a wreath shape that fits around the circle die cut. You can fill in any gaps with the smaller rose bud and then colour with Polychromus pencils.

The single rose stem was stamped around the background with a pale grey ink, before Distress inks were applied with a sponge over the top.

To finish off, a sentiment from Words to Dazzle and Sparkle was added.

My second card is a simple DL design that I have stamped using the Rose Set. I inked up the rose tile stamp with Onyx Black Versafine ink and stamped in a chequer board style. No measuring was needed, I just lined it all up by eye but of course you can use a stamp positioner if you wish.

In the spaces I added the rose bud stamp and then coloured with a red Polychromus pencil. The sentiment is from Words to Dazzle and Sparkle. I then cut the design to size and mounted onto red card before adhering to the front of the card blank.

Thanks for stopping by. Please call back soon for more Design Team inspiration.
