A Rose is a Rose


Welcome!

I want to share a card I created for our challenge at The Outlawz: Twisted Thursday.  
We have a "BINGO" menu for you to choose from this week!   That is always fun because you have some choices and we always get some really creative cards!  ..


I have been trying to find where I bought this clear stamp.  I think it was froun Flourishes and it was called Parrot Rose.   I may be wrong because my Google searches did not help.   I found everything from roses to parrots but not parrot rose!  LOL   Anyway, it is one of my favorite images.  I first came across this stamp when Theresa Momber used it for one her here posts.... and I am certain she said it was from Flourishes.   I quickly ordered it and just love it!  

I used copic sketch markers.   R20, R22, R24, R27,  and R27/C5/R27 sandwich.  The green leaves and stem are R20, R40, R45, R28.   My background is G40, W0 and Opaque White Ink by Copic.    I sponged the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink and dry embossed the side of my mat.   The base mat is actually a little darker than the picture.    

Join us at The Outlawz: Twisted Thursday for our weekly challenge!  

Hugs,
Marie
