Retired Roses


These beautiful roses are from Clear Dollar Stamps.  The company has been closed for many years but I still use their stamps because they are so beautiful.  I painted them with watercolors.  I haven't painted in a long time and had a good time doing it.  I love this paper from Making Memories.  It is also old.  You can't tell in the picture but it looks like fabric, just beautiful.
I would like to submit this card into these challenges:
Cutie Pie - Going Girlie 
Back to Basics - Watercolors
Just Add Ink - Photo - I used the pink roses

So glad that you enjoyed getting your watercolours out to play, Sarah! Your rose is beautiful and I love the depth of your leaves too and how they compliment your lovely papers too. Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week.

I love all your layers of colour and pattern Sarah, they work beautifully together and your water coloured roses are just the perfect way to add focal point. Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.

I don't blame you for holding on to your rose stamps, Sarah! I've kept stamps since I started making cards in the late 1990's and find myself pulling them out every month to meet some special stamping need. You made great use of our sketch this week with all your details. Thank you for sharing with us here at Try Stampin' on Tuesday!!! -Donna
