And you can quote me on that!!

Chocolate Rose

"Quotes" - that's the theme we've got for you this week at Charisma and I once again used my gorgeous Rose is a Rose stamp set, I had to make an Anniversary Card and found a gorgeous quote to use (good old Google), it's a bit unclear so the quote says:

"Love is like a rose, when pressed between two lifetimes, it will last forever"

All Stampin' Up! used as follows:
Stamp - A Rose is a Rose, with Close to Cocoa & Chocolate Chip ink, also Mellow Moss & Old Olive on the leaves
Cardstock - Chocolate Chip; Very Vanilla
DSPs - Tea & Crumpets
Ribbon - Chocolate Chip

Non SU -
Embossing folder & nesties

Hope you can join us this week, we've a couple of prizes to give away, so worth entering.

TFL xx

Sophisticats Week 19

Wonderful Mum

Good morning and welcome to Monday, didn't that come around quickly! I've finally caught up on the 753 unread posts - that's what happens when you go awol for a few days, so should get round to leaving some love & comments again now!

It's Challenge no. 19 over at Sophisticats and it's a bit of special one this week as Lisa has set the theme and it's in honour of her mum who passed away three years ago, so your challenge is to make a mum/miss you/or tribute project.

I've used the beautiful A Rose is a Rose stamp on my card, I don't have this set yet but I stamped this image when I visited my SU Granny Rachel a while ago and I thought it was just right for a Mum card, I've kept the rest of the card quite simple so the rose is the highlight, with a bit of distressing for added texture.

Here's the details - all Stampin' Up! unless stated otherwise:
Stamps - A Rose is A Rose; Flight of the Butterfly
Inks - Barely Banana, Apricot Appeal, Certainly Celery, Mellow Moss
DSP - Tea & Crumpets
Cardstock - Apricot Appeal; Certainly Celery
Ribbon - Apricot Appeal
Button - Playground Designer Buttons
Cutter kit - for distressing
Sentiment - from stash

Hope you can join us this week & TFL x
