Deep red roses

Hi everyone, sorry I've missed a couple of days, I'm such a bad blogger, but I've been getting ready for the next couple of weekend craft fairs.

Anyhoo here's my card for today...

I thought I'd have a try at painting deep red roses, as they are my very favourite colour, my wedding bouquet was made up of loads of these, so many in fact that I found it very difficult to hold for any length of time, I had to keep putting it down for a rest. It was absolutely stunning though!

I used a couple of Spellbinders edgeabilities along the edges of my red mat, unfortunately the corners didn't match up very well, so I cut them away and added a morrocan accent corner instead.

I covered the card blank with two papers from Sheenas cd and I did add two moroccan borders along the join, but the topper is so large you cant see it  :o(
I finished with a couple of ribbon bows, some red rosebuds, pearl headed pins, a happy birthday sentiment and a red gem in each corner.

I hope you like it.!
I'm going to enter it into

I'll be back tomorrow, enjoy the rest of your day.
