Roses for you.....

The current sketch at CASE This Sketch is so appealing to me, and I wanted to try one more time, and this time make a truly 1-layer card.


I always enjoy playing with this PTI 3-step rose set, The Sweet Life, and used all distress inks.  I was going to mask a square for behind it, then I spied this old Hero Arts solid stamp called Graphic Scribble.  I stamped it using their Soft Granite ink. And my sentiment is from a tiny Hero Arts set also, simply entitled Messages.  

Yellow roses have always been my favorite, and I like the yellows mixed with the grey backdrop.   Thanks for visiting today.

Those PTI roses have become my fave "go to" flower stamp:). I really love your one layer design- the yellow roses do look pretty against the gray bg stamp!

Lin, this card is beautiful! I also love yellow roses and the yellow and gray color scheme is so pretty! I just noticed the verse on your Blogger profile. My dear friend sought comfort in that verse while she was battling brain cancer. She stayed true to it the whole time up until she went to heaven last week. She was quite the inspiration.
