                                     Now for my project.

I used the rose file to decorate my card. I made this card for some friends that will be getting married in June. I used their color scheme, black, white, red and a touch of grey. I used a Sizzix embossing folder to emboss the white cardstock, and I used black & red half pearls to dressup the embossing.  I cut a few swirls using the swirls & flourishes from the library in SCAL. I chalked all the petals of the rose and leaves, the leaves are from a Cricut cartridge.

I put black half pearls on the ends of the embossed swirls and a larger red in the middle where the swirls meet.

There is a great video on the Creative Kuts' blog
(http://creativekuts.blogspot.com/ ) that is very helpful on how to put
this flower together.

Next up is Connie (CK)--http://conniecancrop.blogspot.com/
