More Bed of Roses

I am so fascinated with this stamp, that I have put it to use again for the Winnie and Walter 3rd Birthday Bash.  This time my inspiration was the mood board.



 

The yellow flowers and the gray strip reminded me of one of my favorite color combinations - yellow and gray. 



I used water color pencils to color the roses which had been heat embossed in clear over smokey gray ink, I didn't quite want a harsh black line drawing.  I added a deep yellow mat and mounted it all on a gray card base.  The sentiment and diecut are also from Winnie & Walter, Big Bold Friends.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
