Good morning! Sharing a very favorite recent card - my parents anniversary was on the 1st of February, so I had to make a special card for them! I had been itching to play with my Altenew Vintage Roses set - this set amazes me so much! I still look at everything stamped with this set and can't believe that it was done with stamps! The layering is AMAZING, and so easy! Here is what I made:

Also linking this up with the current Simon Says Monday Challenge - "H" is for..."happy" in my case:
I used large rose in the top left corner, and did a bit of masking for the pair of roses and to stamp the leaves. I used 3 shades of MFT dye ink - they layer so beautifully for this! The edges were distressed with a bit of Tim Holtz Antique Linen ink, just to soften and add to the vintage feel, then I added some machine stitching around the edges. Finished off with some coordinating MFT cardstock, and a few Pretty Pink Posh sequins.
Another thing I am SUPER excited about...I now have my own personalized stamp for the back of my cards, thanks to the AMAZING Bossy Joscie!!! Seriously, I have been wanting something like this for FOREVER - and don't know how I missed the fact that she did these! If you are interested in something like this - or any personalized stamp at all - go check out her store HERE, and tell her I sent you over!
Thanks for stopping by - and have a wonderful day!!!
Such a gorgeous and delightful card! Thank you so much for sharing with us at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. :)
