Another April Anniversary Card

 Hello friends.  This is another anniversary card for April.
I used Pinkfresh Studio's Sparkling Diamond Cut Plate again for the background - it makes such a pretty background, cut in white and mounted to the card base.  I added a strip of black/white pattern paper from my stash, to the left side of the card, and added a narrow strip of SU Real Red to it.  I stamped SU Layers of Beauty in black and used the stencils with Real Red and Soft Succulent (R) inks to blend the colors on.  I used a Dark Real Red Blend to go over the small buds and the centers of the smaller flowers.  After die cutting, I mounted the image with foam tape.  The sentiment is from an older Sweet n' Sassy Stamp set and is mounted with foam tape.

I will add this to Darnell's I.D.E.A.S Challenge as it is Ink/Color Mediums week and I used plenty of ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn

  4. These roses are gorgeous, JoAnn! I love that you used ink with a stencil and blends to color the flowers! And that paper makes a wonderful contrast that makes the roses shine!
