Rosebuds

I decided to make some flower cards as it is so cold and dreary here when it should be Spring with flowers blooming! So stamped flowers it is! I love this two-step rose set called A Rose is A Rose! I used just the Real Red pad for these rose buds, stamping off the first step on scratch paper so that the first step is a lighter shade of red. Then I stamped over that with the second stamp inked fully with Real Red. I did the same thing with the leaves using Old Olive and stamping off on scratch paper for the first step. ~Paper: Real Red CS, Shimmery White CS, To the Nines DS paper. ~Assessories: Red Satin Ribbon, Square Scallop punch, 1 1/4" Square punch, Mat Pack & Paper Piercing tool.
