Made this card for a card challenge. Viva la Verve has some of the nicest card examples and entries into the challenges. This is from a sketch for the third week in June. My plan is to link it to the challenge and enter BUT, I'm not sure if I will figure this all out. Some of the blogging stuff is a bit of a challenge in and of it'self! I made my own patterned paper background with Gina K stamps and then made the rose using the stampin up owl punch and a sissex 3d flower cut out. added some glimmer from tattered angels and a perfect pearl centre. (personally it looks like glue to me but what's done is done!) the leaves are another stampin up punch that has petals and leaves. I actually used a fiskars punch that I was starting to think I would never use. It's this awkward oval thing. First you have to cut out an oval using the template and line it up and punch out the design. It doesn't work very well but in the end I got a good result for the curve. I saw this really nice video on youtube on how to make the flower. I modified mine a bit but it's still the basic idea.

I'm quite pleased with the outcome of this card and hope my card wins the draw! Of course I wish everyone luck even if I love winning too!
