Have you visited the CPS site for a new sketch yet this week? CPS Sketch 57 is up, and there are some lovely samples posted!
The card on the left uses a Wordsworth rose border stamp image and script thank you sentiment, and a Cornish Heritage Farms Scalloped Lace backgrounder. I used an SU Regal Rose ink cube to ink the inside of the rose, finished the edges with a Regal Rose marker, and colored the greenery in a Certainly Celery marker. I huffed on the stamp, then stamped it on a smooth vanilla cardstock.
The lace background is also stamped in Regal Rose ink, with the right edge scalloped with a Martha Stewart edge punch. Pearls are the ivory/pale yellow ones, and ribbon is PaperTrey Ink's Spring Moss Satin.
Why the fixation on roses lately? Hmmm. . . Maybe because I'm ready for the snow to GO! We keep looking every day for the first robin--maybe today!
Meanwhile, I'm still enmeshed in taxes. I think my stamping mojo takes a hike when I have to think about numbers. At least, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. ;-)
