Shabby Roses


Hello! Sorry for not posting anything new since last week--busy busy busy! Here, I used my rose stamp from the "Wing It" set by Stampin' Up!. I have used this set several times in the past week since gettng it and I just love it! It's perfect for Valentine's day, of course, but the rose and heart are great for many occasions and the crown, wings and royal crest are totally awesome! I think teenagers would love this set too and I still feel like one most of the time anyway, so it's suits me so well! I stamped the roses in pink and black, then popped them on dimensionals and framed them, distressing and roughing up the edges. I sponged all edges too and added bits of dazzling diamond glitter from, also from SU! to the roses. I probably would do the "dangling" love you differently next time--maybe using a metal frame or something hardware'ish. I also need a sympathy/thinking of you card, so I'm going to do this again with the roses and use different paper and sentiments. Thanks for taking a peek and big hugs to you!
