Waltzing Mouse Challenge #53

It looks like I'm really into purple recently, which is really strange, because I'm an "everything blue" sort of girl. But a change is good.  Love this cute sketch from WMS Sketch Challenge this week.
I embossed the background with help of a Scor-buddy, did some piercing and used my white gel pen to connect the piercing.  The rose was coloured with copic markers - V000, V01, V04 for the rose, and G02, G05, G17 & G29 for the leaves.  A simple card.

I'm making sure that I post my card and link it correctly this week, cos last week I goofed up (click here to see my card for Challenge #52 which didn't make it to the WMS sketch blog... LOL!).

Have a lovely day!
Stamps : WMS Roses in Bloom, Afternoon Tea Sentiments
Ink : Memento Rich Cocoa, Copic markers
Other : buttons, Uni-ball Signo white gel pen

Kary this is a delight to the eyes - love the way you have used a monochrome look here, and the detail in the scoring and faux stitching too. The buttons are really sweet.

This is sooo pretty, Kary! Love that you embossed the background yourself, looks great! I hope to make a card with that sketch as well, this evening, when my friend Marit will come over, but I also want to make a card for Make It Mondays and for the A Passion for Papertrey challenge! Ha ha, always lots to do in card-making-land, right?! ;-) Love your take on this challenge!!!
Hugs, Wendy
