For today's new Alphabet Challenge: Letter A Color-Amaranth, which is a rose red. Double Challenge-Antique.
This week's FS: Susy Kegel (Boss) I've been a fan of Susy's work and I'm always impressed at the inspiring comments she leaves. Congratulations, Susy...enjoy your special week in the spotlight! Here is the pretty bundle of tulips I got my inspiration from! I used the same stamp as Susy, but I changed the color and I fussy cut the whole image! When you see it in person and touch the water color paper against the smooth vanilla, it looks and feels amazing! I water colored using blender pens and ink pads and added wink of stella to each tulip tip. I used a sponge with Basic Gray and distress tool to add an antiqued look, a few rhinestones, ribbon and crochet trim, plus an embossing plate. The black panel is popped up. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

I love this, Roberta. I like that you used black and white to go with the newsprint on the tulips. I like the embellished ribbon. Gorgeous coloring of the tulips!

How stunning Roberta! I love these gorgeous tulips that pop right out of the gallery they are so bright and happy. The distressing you did looks incredible on the image layer. The crochet trim and lattice embossing work perfectly with this gorgeous card Roberta. You made an amazing card for both challenges my friend! ~Karen.

Beautiful card, Roberta. I wish I would have bought this image - it is so pretty and looks awesome on your card. Lovely design with the ribbon embossing and distressing.
