Since my last card used some bright colors, I thought I'd make one in softer colors today.
This card is inspired by Peace Roses, which I remember in my paternal Grandfather's garden........It's said that a cutting was sent on the last available plane to the US from France before it was invaded during WWII.

I lightly edged the yellow pieces with picked raspberry distress oxide ink.
Hope your week is off to a great start!

Great colors on those roses, Lin - just love how you inked the paint chips! So feminine on the scalloped rectangle!!
What an awesome story.. and such beautiful roses! :)
Goregeous blooms Lin. Love the attention to detail with the inked edges.
I adore those dies which you've made into Peace roses--one I had outside my kitchen window for many years! I didn't know that story about WWII, though. Stunning card, Lin!
Beautiful sweet roses for such a sweet, loving story. I love hearing family stories and memories.
Oh, such beautiful roses, and I love the colors, Lin. But the story is so touching. How precious are the memories of your grandfather! I agree that hearing family stories and memories are so dear! Hugs, sweet friend!
This is lovely Lin and so feminine!
