Roses. Again.

Aaaarrrggghhh!!! (gnash, gnash, gnash.. teeth, that is!) I am getting towards the end of my long list of cards I had to make, and I wanted to get to this challenge before it ended, but I missed it.. AGAIN! I ask you! (sigh) Oh well.

Anyways... this is for LAST week's Allsorts Challenge, No. 15, which is a fab sketch by Jules, with a twist, as you're s'posed to include some tearing somewhere on the design.

This is my take on it.. Roses. Again.

Gorgeous DP by K&Co. (Bailey). Sentiment is computer-generated in the Cezanne font. (The rosebud stems aren't really that long... I sacrificed some stems from other roses to extend them.)

Hi, Lesley.. Thank you. It's the Cezanne font. I bought it from ITC Fonts a few months ago.. was £13.

This is just so beautiful Chris! Those little rosebuds you use are so delicate and pretty. Can I ask where you get them please? And the way you tie them with such fine threads - completely stunning!
