Inspiration for Rose Garden Promise

Last month we swooped in just in time to give you a lovely Christmas die that you could still create with to prepare something before Christmas.  This month, we’re looking at turning the corner and going into a new year.  I don’t know about you, but it’s a time where hope for the upcoming year catches my thoughts.  Just barely into winter, my thoughts always turn to Roses in December.  Last year in December the die template was a lovely rose template and again this year, I’m tickled to keep up with the tradition and give you roses again.

Once I sat down to play with this die and make samples, my head filled with so many ideas about how to put together a card.

I think the gold and cream is a classic but also loved the black for the punch of color.  This is truly a 10 minute card!!

I was excited to pull out my Copic Markers and flick on some faint color to barely color the roses.

After I was done flicking on color, I overlaid the entire arrangement with the white outline.  This is the same concept I show in the video.

This version was a no-brainer by dabbing on some watercolor.  If I can do this anyone can do this because I’m a classic overthinker.  Well, I didn’t have to think about this, just color!!

I created the background by bumping my watercolor brush against my hand so that purposefully, droplets would fall.  Since I tend to be accident prone, I have to admit that it’s satisfying doing that on purpose.  Afterwards, I stacked four of the outlines adhering each with white glue.  The end result gives a lot of depth and makes the die cut framing very sturdy.

Bless you all as we find ourselves perpetually in a new place every month.  Holidays during the coronavirus can be daunting but I think that armed with technology and hope, the holidays will turn out okay.  Shopping online and being together via Skype isn’t sad, it’s a triumph.  I applaud our collective spirit and hope that no matter what you savor the coming holiday.
