Congratulations Diane (aka Minnidr) - I love looking through your wonderful gallery.... Enjoy your day in the spotlight.
I chose to case this gorgeous water coloured rose card called "Fifth Avenue Rose" FIFTH AVENUE ROSE by minnidr at Splitcoaststampers
I also combined it with this weeks Limited Supply challenge - to use either your High School colours or wedding colours - I chose my wedding colours - grey, red and white. And also this weeks Our Creative corners challenge called triple play... http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.c...iple-play.html - to use at least three of the embellishments out of the list that is supplied. Also this works for the Doubledog Dare challenge - weddings.
I tried Patty Bennett's water colour technique found on her tutorial - http://pattystamps.com/pattys_stampi...-tutorial.html
I didn't have the Fifth Avenue Rose image or the embossing folder she used.
I changed the Rose stamp and used a different CB folder, leaf die cut and different sentiment. Added ribbon, heart spiral clip, rhinestone bling, Designer Label Hardware and silver brads.
I need to practice the watercolour technique more, But am happy with how this turned out.

Pat, your image and hardware are wonderful! What a case! Love the stitching on the edging- is this a Koki Rose? Hmmm... Hugs!
