Time again for a colorful challenge at The Shabby Tea Room! Gorgeous deep rich fall colors were chosen this week. The added challenge was to have handmade flowers. I incorporated lots of flowers. In fact, the card was top heavy!!:-):-) I masked the border punch with tea dye ink on two of the papers for interest. I used a cardboard circle for the base of the rolled flowers and inked the sides with burgundy ink. I don't know how many mini flowers I rolled, but I sure got my practice rolling them!:-) And, it was fun! I love the effect of those tiny little rolled roses. I added lace, pearls, button, and gold thread to finish the card! Without further delay, here is my card....
