Going back in time (for an anniversary card)

Fifth Avenue Congrats crop

I just love the color combination of this Stampin’ Up! Urban Oasis designer paper, so I chose to play off of that for an anniversary card for my DD and her husband.

I also decided to try the ribbon rose that I had seen and was totally wowed by on Christine’s blog.  She has a great tutorial HERE.

The paper rose is done in 3 layers (of course!), and shaded a little with a Copic marker.  I also thought there should be 3 ribbon roses as well.

Fifth Avenue Congrats

A simple card really, but I just love the visual impact of the kiwi on the basic gray!

Hey!  I just realized this is an SU only card!  I don’t know when the last time I did that was!  So simple and coordinated!

Thanks for another visit!  I really appreciate your visits and comments, and I sure hope you’ll keep coming back!

    OMG what a fabulous card. What a great idea stamping the rose on patterned paper and then layering it. Your ribbon roses are just beautiful and look fantastic on this card.
