Large all occasion card with a floral heart and rose paper background

 I am working on card for my family's special occasions.  I started with a brown card which fits in a large envelope from my stash.  I had decided to use this rose paper which came in a paper pack quite a while back and I chose two identical sheets, stacked them to keep the flowers and make a piece that would fit on my card then made a diagonal cut.  Worked really well with the diagonal cut not too distracting.  I added a pink strip backed with a green strip to which I added brushed nickel eyelets and some paper piercing with my pattern tracing wheel to add texture.  The floral heart image (Simon Says) was stamped on another sheet in the pack of the rose papers in black and then die cut.  I layered it onto another more pink section and fussy cut it.  I added some watercolour to help define the flowers and leaves.  Love this stamp set and look forward to using it more often.  Therese
