Sentimental Rose

How's everyone today?

I am here to share a sympathy card I made for  Tutti Designs using this beautiful

Rose Frame

Sadly this type of occasion is one that hits us all at sometime.

I only used lilac card with the white to keep it soft and simple.

Cut the Rose frame in white card and emboss. As it is an intricate frame be sure and run it

through your cutting machine a few times, or add an extra shim, for best results.

Then using sticky dots I adhered to a piece of lilac card and trimmed to fit white rose frame.

Keep the white centre from the die cut to stamp your sentiment.

Trim a piece of lilac card and run through with chosen embossing folder.

I went with roses to match the Rose Frame.

I added a piece of vintage lace to tie in with the soft look.

Next I stamped my chosen sentiment in the off cut from the Rose Frame.

Be sure to have the off cut facing right way as it fits in nicely then.

I stuck this in centre of frame. Added 3d foam to back and adhered to my card.

Now it's time to make the flowers.

Using Scalloped Stitched Nesting Circles I cut

4 circles for centre flower and 3 for two smaller flowers.

Hold these in place with a brad. Doesn't matter if not the same as

I will be covering them later.

Spray the flowers with water and scrunch up. Then dry off with heat tool.

Gently re-open the flowers, drying again if necessary.

Add a punched lilac circle and adhere to centre.

Add to your card and finish with a nice bow.
