*Colour Me pretty* and a Red Rose


This is the first card I've made for a while.  I'm entering it into the Shabby Tea Room challenge - *Colour me Pretty*
The requirements are to use white, cream, pink & blue, fabric and a flower.



Here's the inspiration photo....



Now I want to show you a flower that I just made from ric rac.  I came across a tutorial, and couldn't wait to try it.



  
Another view...

I used 3/8" wide ric rac....the wider the ribbon the bigger your rose will be.

Here is the link for the tutorial.

Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Have a nice day!

Babs, these are gorgeous. I love the style of the card, and the rose is fabulous. It's also executed so well. I tried one, too, and I can tell others that this is not an easy project. Mine looked horrible and wound up in the trash. I hang my head and tell you how much more I admire your talents. Hugs, dj
