I stamped my rose background, sponged in three colors, and stamped by text. My rose and bud were stamped. I cut off the frame around them and fussy cut the roses. Though, I was using cardstock and not watercolor paper, I took just a bit of water on my brush with some pink ink and slightly colored bits of my rose. Last, I stamped my sentiment and butterfly.

Is this ever gorgeous Brenda and such a great interpretation of the roses you chose for your inspiration. The background is amazing and really showcases your blush-tinted roses so beautifully. ~Karen.

BEAUTIFUL!!! I love how that beautiful touch of gold and a little pink really light up your roses in the most extraordinary way. Your background is glorious, so much vintage style and you have created a cohesive whole in a way that is truly masterful. I am truly impressed with how you used a bit of color combined with neutrals to create such light around those roses. I just noticed how you have blended in some blue behind which gives balance to the warmth and brings out the light even more. WOW!
