Gail is the host for this weeks challenge!
I made a simple card with the Graceful Garden stamp set.
Today Stampin' Up! released Stampin' Blends new alcohol markers! I used them to color the rose from Graceful Garden.
The pink marker is labeled Pink Pirouette but is much closer to Blushing Bride in my opinion. I used the regular markers to ink up the stamp with Blushing Bride on the petals and Old Olive on the stem and leaves then stamped onto Whisper White Cardstock. I colored first with the light marker the dark for the shadows and again with the light to blend.
I stamped the sentiment from Special Celebrations with Old Olive ink and cut it out with Bunch of Banners Framelits. I sponged the edges with Blushing Bride ink and popped it up with Dimensionals. The card base is Thick Whisper White with layers of Blushing Bride and Old Olive.

What a beautiful single stemmed rose Kath. I like the colouring with the Powder pink and complimentary colours. So feminine! Thanks for sharing.
