Today's card is a farewell to Cottage Rose, I must have missed this on the retiring list, I pulled the dies but not the stamp set, UGH! I always thought of this set as looking a bit Victorian, so I chose to use it with 3 of the new In Colors.
I started with a Very Vanilla Cardstock square & stamped the big image in the retiring Cottage Rose Stamp Set with Crumb Cake Ink, then colored it in using Moody Mauve, Boho Blue, Old Olive, Wild Wheat Stampin' Blends Combo Packs, before adhering it to a Boho Blue Cardstock square. Next, I took a Moody Mauve Cardstock layer & stamped the 3 flowers using Moody Mauve Ink all over as a background, then attached this to a Crumb Cake Cardstock base. I used the retiring Cottage Flower Dies with Crumb Cake Cardstock to die-cut the 2 open floral images, these were adhered to the back of the stamped image then adhered to the rest of the card. For the sentiment, I again used Crumb Cake Cardstock that I die-cut using the retiring Layering Circle Dies then stamped a sentiment from the set using Moody Mauve Ink then popped it up using Stampin' Dimensionals. Lastly, I added a few retiring Crumb Cake Enamel Dot Essentials to finish the card off.
