You may have to look hard to find it, but I really did use the sketch.
I wanted a pale yellow rose. Started with Squeezed Lemon Distress. It's not pale. So I added some shimmering watercolors. Again. Looks really splotchy, eh? Oh well, the shimmer IRL kinda makes up for that.
Cut a "label" die from PP. Stamped the card base (note the "Gracias" peeking out above the label) and "Thanks" sentiment and distressed them with Tea Dye Distress. Stitched the label on. Added the rose and then the sentiment with dimensional adhesive and glued a bow of scrunched seam binding at the bottom of the label.
This is the finished product.
Happy weekend to ya.

absolutely awesome...I love the stitching..adds a fun touch! Thanks for playing with us at The Craft's Meow!
Hi Maria - I've been having a lovely browse through your rose cards and they are wonderful! My absolute favourite has to be that gorgeously delicate vellum rose with the rhinestone centre - beautiful!
The sewing is such a nice touch, and what a pretty flower!
So sad that you've finished your rose cards.. they have all been so beautiful, but like Vicky my favourites have been the vellums. Look forward to seeing what you do next. M x
Beautiful card. I love all the texture in the different layers.
