Rosey Woodland Scene

The SCS Color Challenge colors are: 

Cajun Craze
Crushed Curry
Fresh Fig



For the color challenge, I used a base of Fresh Fig and dry embossed a matt with the same color.  After embossing I rubbed it with Nuvo Embellishment Mousse in Gunmetal Grey for a metallic shimmer.  The background oval was water colored in the CC colors and a scene was made with the Heartfelt Creations Woodsy Wonderland Collection stamps and dies.  All of the images were sponged with the CC colors and raised with foam tape.  The oval frame was made with the HFC Eyelet Oval & Basics Dies.

For details on creating the sculpted roses, check out this video.
.

The roses and leaves were made with the HFC Classic Rose stamps and dies and the flowers and trees were sponged with glue and sprinkled with glitter.


The sentiment is from a HFC paper collection and three enamel dots were added after distressing.

Rose Wishes

I'm playing along with the SCS Sketch Challenge today.


For the sketch, I used paper from the Heartfelt Creations Raindrops on Roses paper collection and created roses and leaves using the HFC Classic Rose collection stamps and dies.  The roses were stamped with retired ink Stampin Up Blackberry Bliss and the centers sponged with MFT Limelight ink, after they were cut out. the edges were sponged with the Blackberry Bliss.  A little of the BB was also sponged on the leaves after being stamped with Memento Bamboo Leaves.  All of the flowers were then sponged with glue and glitter added.


The little sentiment tag is also from the Raindrops on rose collection and tiny enamel dots were used for accent.
