Roses with love


    This fortnight the Aud Sentiments challenge has the theme of sending love + a sentiment and it is being sponsored by Fred She Said.

   I have used digis from their hearts and roses set. The smaller image is just a truncated version of the larger. I coloured them using alcohol pens and added Glossy Accents to one of the rose petals for a dew drop. After matting and layering onto dark pink coordinations cardstock  and white card I added three card candi.
