Scribble Roses

Today is a Frantic Stampers Inc post.

This is what I am calling a grown up card.  I haven't made a card like this in a while as I have been on a cute and quirky train. Not that, that train has left the station yet!!! I had two Frantic Stampers Inc dies I wanted to use.   Scribble Roses and Petite Butterflies.   First of all I watercolored a small piece of card in pastel colours. This would be my butterflies.   While that was drying I set to and die cut 12 or so large scribble roses.  I then arranged them on another piece of white card stock.  A couple I cut away the leaves so they fitted together better.  I backed the scribble rose panel onto a piece of pink just to lift it a little.  After stamping my sentiment and putting it up on foam I cut and placed my butterflies.  Five as I have learned balance equals odd numbers and apparently when we see things in odd numbers we don't tend to count them subconsciously like we do with things in even numbers.  Hence better harmony.....

Beautiful card Karen, I love the pretty pastel butterflies. The background is a great idea, it looks like it's been dry embossed.

Wow, I would have thought the roses were embossed if I hadn't read your post first. Very pretty.
