More Bamboo Roses


I can't seem to stop picking up this stamp set - Bamboo Rose - by Altenew!  I'm playing along with two great challenges: Freshly Made Sketches and The Card Concept.  I was inspired by the black and white with pops of red/orange tones in the inspiration photo for starters.  I gold embossed the images on Ranger watercolor CS then used Mijello Mission Gold watercolor paints (two shades of green and a shade of orange and red).  I had to fussy cut the images and will be glad when my coordinating Bamboo Rose dies arrive!  They make crafting life SO much easier - lol!  The patterned paper is from Echo Park's For The Record 6x6 pad.  This sketch is a keeper and will be used again and again for its versatility!

Thanks for stopping by...time to hit the shower then head out to work.

I really, really want this stamp set but I'm trying to be good. You're really not helping by producing a gorgeous card like this, Wanda :) Love these roses and the patterned paper is perfect with them. So happy to see you at FMS.
