January 2010: Birthday roses

Hello!

Happy New Year!

Made this card earlier this month.  It was a birthday card sent along with some roses (being the birthday invidual's favourite flowers).  Rose petals were made out of large punched out circles from card-stock like paper (left over scrap bits) and carefully arranged and glued to create that layered petal-ed look.  Admittedly they ended up looking more like poppies than anything else!  (I suppose I've got to go back to drawing board to fine tune design).

The card design was relatively simple - happily used some rather large bits of scrap bits sitting around in my collection bin to make red petal along with the 'black' card-stock base and gold colour stickers (that i collected upon the most recent visit to a museum in Singapore) :)
