A card for Nicole's VSN challenge to take a mistake and make it useful. I stamped this Christmas Rose image for the Christmas carol challenge (Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming) but smeared the ink. I decided to smear ALL of the ink and it made kind of a halo/shadow around the image, so I didn't have to figure out how to add one - voila! I've been admiring many cards that frame the image with a negative diecut, so I finally remembered to give that a try, as well.

The ink smearing is beautiful! It gives your image a soft, vintage look that I love. The die you used to frame your roses is one of my favorites. Thanks for playing along with my challenge and Merry Christmas!
