Elegant Roses

I made this card for the JustRite Friday Color Challenge #071 - "Perfect Pastels".

This card was made using Marianne Star Collection Stencils following a design by Petra van Dam. All of the embossing was done on a light table, and the cutting was done with an Xacto knife.

I just realized that the link to the page on Petra's site always goes to the first page. To see the card which inspired mine, click on Star Collection nr.08 in the dropdown on the left sidebar.

I again used JustRite's Elegant Frames Cling Set. It was stamped using Distress Peeled Paint, cut with Spellbinders Labels Ten, and applied using dimensional tape.

I used some very old Wright's trim for the lace on the edges, and Liquid Pearls throughout the design. The flowers are some my craft store packages, and two discontinued Prima ones. I outlined some of the stitching lines with a green sparkly Jelly Roll Pen.

I wish the embossing showed up better in the photo.

  1. This is so pretty...nice stencil work. I think I have those stencils and have not used them yet. But please don't ask me where they are right now...LOL. I'm lucky I can find my computer these days. My house is so upside down with all this repair work.
