A Year of Flowers - Thank You to Melanie

I am posting this too late for her challenge but just wanted to tell Melanie Muenchinger how much I love her stamp set "A Year of Flowers". I have seen some of the most fabulous cards made with this set and I have enjoyed using it many times over. Thanks Mel!!

Update: I find that I was mistaken about being too late -- the contest doesn't end until tonight. So if you want to enter, head on over to Hands, Head and Heart; you have this one last chance! One thing I failed to do in my post was to give credit for the sketch. It comes from Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge. Isn't it a great one!

A Rose for Melanie

Melanie Muenchinger is an awsome illustrator for Gina K Designs. She is celebrating two years of illustrating and blogging with a ginormous blog hop which she has invited everyone to join by making a card with one of her many stamp sets! I have used A Year of Flowers to create this card. I stamped the image on SU Blush Blossom cs and used a blender pen to color with Blush Blossom, Groovy Guava, Pretty in Pink, and Cameo Coral. I cut out the rose and leaves and adhered to the white cs that has been embossed with Cuttlebug's Swiss Dots Folder; I used pop dots for the rose. Added a pretty bow with ribbon from Michael's and it's done!
