Freshly Made Sketches #728

I'm still trying to use older stamps when making cards and I have one that sparked my card for Freshly Made SketchesChristmas Rose from WPlus9.

It is stamped with Memento Toffee Crunch and colored with CP inks for the flowers and Distress Inks for the leaves.  I added white anthers with a Uni-Ball pen and a few splatters before stamping the sentiment from PTI in Toffee Crunch.  The colors were inspired by my own flowers that I always called Lenten Roses, scientific name Hellebore.  


Pardon the dead leaves in the middle.  When I know the frost is over they will be removed.  

Thanks for dropping by and spending a bit of your day with me.

Such a lovely card, and the splatters are the perfect final touch. Weather here has been brutal. Last was an ice storm that took power from most of Roscommon County. Hopefully your cottage will be okay. It's been a heck of a winter up here!!!
