White Roses


Here's a card I made for two challenges at Splitcoaststampers  - the Inspiration Challenge at  BHLDN (specialising in wedding things) where I was inspired by this Cape Jasmine Bottle Stopper and the Featured Stamper Challenge where I was inspired by Karen's (kthaman) beautiful card.
I used My Favorite Things Mini Rolled Rose Die-namics to make the roses from felt and their Fancy Flourish Die-namic for the greenery.  
I recently got a Marianne Design Creatables butterfly die and was told by several people that if the cardstock stuck in the fine bits of the die, to add a layer of waxed paper between the die and the cardstock.  
I can't find waxed paper readily here in the U.K. and didn't have any parchment paper either, so I tried a layer of saran wrap or cling film as it's called here in the U.K. - it worked perfectly and the cardstock slid out of the die easily all in one piece.
I used a scoring board to score lines along the edges of the sentiment strip.
Supplies include:
Marianne Design Creatables Butterfly Die LR015
Joy Craft leaf die
White felt
Scoring Board
Pearls
Versafine Black Onyx ink
SU Whisper White cardstock
SU Lucky Limeade cardstock
SU Thank You Kindly

This is so stunning! You did a great job with those flowers! I have that butterfly. I have a spellbinder butterfly and have yet to use it. This inspires me to get it out and try. Hope you are having a nice weekend...Jill

Absolutely gorgeous Bridget! I love white on white and your touch of greenery only adds to the spectacular effect. I like how you clipped the flourish die, I have that die and never thought to cut it up....but now cannot wait to try!
