My Favourite Roses !

Here's another card using the pretty IO stamp called Beauty Rose (F8842). I love this stamp! This time I heat embossed it with my favourite EP, Embossing Pearl in Pale Gold, and coloured the roses with water colour pencils. The image was cut with SB Labels Twenty-Eight, and mounted on SB Decorative Labels Twenty -Eight. Part of the b'ground was stamped with IO's Cover-A-Card Toile (CC127) and the top half was embossed with a C'bug Damask folder. I folded part of a doily for an embellishment and added seam binding, ric-rac, and buttons. I mounted the whole thing on a base of top-folded 110lb Neenah Solar white CS. So glad I decided to try this CS, it's so perfect for card bases.
 I'm entering this in Impression Obsessions "Green" challenge and
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Anything Goes with Buttons'
