An English rose

Happy Thursday everyone!  Some of you may remember my card here where I used the new release Victoria Bonita by Victoria Case in a French style.  I love this little lady so much that I wanted to try her out in an English style too so I inked her up and here's what I came up...



Isn't she lovely?  I teamed her up papers from the BasicGrey Green at Heart paper pack and those gorgeous Jenni Bowlin pearl pins in cream - aren't they luscious?!!  A real touch of luxury!  You can buy some of those pearly beads that I've used as the flower centres from here.

That's it from me today - see you later on with my DT card for By LoRi Designs!


I am entering my card into Karen's Doodles for the theme of Spring and Bunny Zoe's monthly challenge for happy birthday with lots of pearls.


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, BasicGrey Green at Heart paper pack
Stamps: Victoria Bonita by Victoria Case, My Favorite Things sentiment
Mediums: Copics
Accents: satin and velvet ric rac ribbon from stash, doily (not sure where I got this from!)
Tools: Martha Stewart border punch, My Favorite Things label and rolled rose dies, Nestabilities label die inside card
