These is my second card for today's sketch challenge and uses the colors from yesterday's color challenge.
I have been making birthday, Christmas and valentine's cards for my friend to give to her husband. Their anniversary is this weekend and he has asked me to make a card for her. This is what I came up with.
This uses a retired SU stamp called Romantic Rose and the new Very Vintage jumbo wheel for the background. I wheeled the Very Vintage wheel with Perfect plum ink onto the pale plum CS and then I colored some of the images with colored pencils. I stamped the rose image with Soft Suede ink and then used Prisma color pencils to color the images. I added a small butterfly charm for dessert.
This is an A6 card. Finished size is 4 5/8" X 6 1/4".
What do you think?

Oh my goodness, this is so beautiful! I had not seen those roses before (now I'll be on the look out! lol). Love the vintage wheel bg and the colors and your coloring is so beautiful.

This is simply outstanding. Love the gorgeous rose and how each square shows a different perspective of it. Just totally awesome!
