Pink Rose

This weeks sketch challenge is one that can be put together quickly and uses 2 panels on the background. When I first saw this sketch, my first thoughts were to use some of my au chocolat DP for my background, I discovered I still have some of the small dots from both patterns so I went with that. As I was using the au chocolat DP I wanted to also combine this week's color challenge which is to use pretty in pink, Chocolate Chip & Old Olive. Once I knew what colors I was using & my background I then had to decide which stamp to use, I wanted something I could color pink. I had my new mixed bouquet set sitting on my table behind me so I used the rose & leaves from that set.

The rose is stamped using chocolate chip ink and then colored in with markers. The little pink pieces bridging the 2 DP are the bits from the horizontal slot punch. I added the brown bow to the left side of the card to finish it off.
