Inspired by Beauty and the Beast

Hi, everyone!  One of my great nieces is obsessed with red roses right now because of Beauty and the Beast, so I used what I had on hand to create a themed birthday card for her. This week's Sketch Challenge #801 over at Splitcoast provided the most perfect layout!  I began by stamping the triple rose image from the 'Rose' stamp set (retired) from Divinity Designs LLC, then fussy cut a single rose, an extra leaf, and an extra rose petal in order to balance the image.  The sentiment is from the 'Beauty' stamp set. The sentiment, background, and image panels were cut with the Pierced Rectangles Dies; the frame was cut with the 'Lavish Layers' Dies; the white mat was cut with the Matting Rectangle Die, the card base was cut with the A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies; the yellow panel was dry embossed with the 'Flourishes' embossing folder.  Red grosgrain ribbon was tied with a Bow Easy for the finishing touch.

Thanks for visiting with me!!

Blessings,
