Designed for 4 of the Dare to Get Dirty challenges posted by joanervin, AmberDawn, DeborahLynneS and melmel. Woowhooo!!! 5 more challenges to go and I will have completed all 33!!
I created this one using a Layers of Colors stamps set called Vintage Roses. I used some of the individual roses to create a tone on tone effect on the circle in the background. I used Apricot Appeal ink on the backside of my DP (it had a coordinating orange on the backside) to create this effect. To tie the look together, I paperpieced the vase using my DP. White ink on the outside of the circle and orange chalk on the edges of the Spellbinder's Die really softened the look and brought it all together.
