A bit of inspiration for Stella's sketch

As a full team member at Bugaboo Digi Stamps I have an assigned number for samples and my number fell today. Being new to the team I did not notice that the Stella Says Sketch challenge is not weekly and made a sample anyway.

This is the sketch:


And this is my take on it.



Materials used: 
Bugaboo Digi Stamps - Rose Trio
Acrylic greeting stamp
black archival ink
Copic pens
red embossed card
rose patterned designer paper
X-Press It card
scalloped edged circle die
plain circle die
3 paper flowers

I decided to only use one of the rose images from the set so cropped it to the one I wanted and printed two copies. I coloured them with the pens then cut one image with a circle die and fussy cut the rose and butterfly from the second image. I stamped out the greeting on a snippet of spare white card and trimmed to size then matted onto red card. I cut a scalloped circle from the same red card and a strip to go at the bottom.

I cut a panel of the patterned card and stuck it to the middle of an A5 card blank. I matted the coloured image onto the scalloped circle and attached to the card near the top. I arranged the greeting and the red strip and attached them also.

I shaped the fussy cut rose a little and attached over the base image with gel glue to give some dimension. I folded the butterfly wings up and just glued down the body leaving the wings unattached. Finally I added the paper flowers.
