Today we're sharing the "Simple Rose" set...

I have been searching for a good rose image for quite some time. Just a line image that I could color in.  So, I created one! ;)  Take a peek at what I created with this set + the Damsel in Distress paper pack...


Like I said, I was wanting a line image of a rose, and I wanted to feature it in a unique way...so I used the image from the Simple Rose set to create a border for one of the sentiments from the set!  I watercolored the border, then added the sentiment and some bakers twine + a bunch of sparkly stuff to finish off the focal panel.  Some gold washi was added behind the sentiment to kind of highlight it as the most important part of the card.  I then backed it with some paper from the Damsel in Distress paper pack.




Because I love this image so much, I decided to add it to the inside.  I tried some different things, but then decided to use it as a "stopper" for an easel card!  The same twine, some bling, and more paper from the Damsel in Distress paper pack was added to tie the whole card together.


I just love the way the open easel card looks!  I really think this turned out prettily--I hope you do, too!  Please leave me a comment below to let me know what you think!

What a gorgeous card! Love the easel style! Another fabulous new set, Mynn! You are so talented! But my favourite set is still the Cat to be Kitten Me set - that one is hard to beat in my books! The winner says x so maybe you haven't drawn yet and I still have a shot - crossing my fingers!
