Chocolate Baroque Rose samples





Hello everyone.
 
I have two cards today using a couple of the beautiful rose designs and a couple of the word stamps.
 
 
 


I really like this bold design with the crackle background called Crackling Rose

The background of the card is simply done by dabbing a couple of Distress inkpads over the card, overlapping each other. You can use a wet paintbrush to smear the colours across the card, and you will still see the texture.
The rose has then been coloured with the same green ink and red.
Best wishes is from the  Loving Sentiments set.

I think this would be suitable for a male friend who likes gardening.







This card actually uses several sets of rose  stamps and a  Loving Sentiment.
Stamps used; Crackling rose, Floribunda net, and rose heads from Harlequin rose.

The background uses the same stamp as my first card, over - stamped several times, with Raspberry Distress ink and then coloured with Raspberry and Dusty Concorde

I selected the single rose heads that I liked  and cut them out individually.

These are unusual colours for me to use but I was pleased with the result.


                                     
Bye for now

Chocolate Baroque 15 minute card - Floribunda Net




Hello
Another 15minute card for you today.
 See others by the Chocolate Baroque DT team on the blog today.

This is one of my favourite rose samples that I've made, using Floribunda net.


 
 

The background was stamped several times over the card using  Bundled Sage and Stormy Sky Distress inks. This was then cut to fit a square card base and an edging drawn around with a wide black pen, to give the appearance of layering.

 The  heart shape had the same colours repeated . I then stamped  the saying first, so that I knew how much space would be left for the rose section on the right.
Matt onto a black heart..



This one has been mounted onto a craft card base.

Thank you for visiting and happy crafting.

Chocolate Baroque samples



Hello everyone.
Welcome to my blog.

Today I would like to show you some more of my Hochanda samples that I did.

I used the stamps from the Take It or Leaf It  set.  They are great for backgrounds but are also good as the main images.


 
This leaf spray is great for backgrounds but it also makes a lovely little wreath shape when stamped in a spiral.
The flowers are from the Floral Harmony set.
 
 


This is a fairly quick and easy card as the leaves are very easy to cut around.

I made a piece of background paper with Distress inks and then stamped the  leaves and flower heads with black Versafine.

Thank you for visiting.
Happy crafting
Carole
