Altenew Layered Rose Die Card

This card I felt was a really easy card, I have used the new Alternew layered die set I have purchased recently. My next idea to use this die is going to be a lot more complicated, so you should look out for this one. 

I decided to start trying some different colour versions of this, I tried from light to dark and dark to light but definitely thought the lightest colour at the bottom and the darkest colour as the outline was my preferred version. Since I had different coloured roses in the end, I decided to make a card with them.

I made a coloured card base, this one I used lemon card.  I made a white card panel for the flowers to go onto, so I made a stitched scalloped edge using the memory box country stitched border dies.  I mounted this on some craft foam and onto my card base.

I then organised my 4 different coloured roses and some leaves into a diagonal arrangement leaving the bottom free for my sentiment. I glued the leaves and two of the roses down onto the card panel, and the other two roses I used foam tape or foam tape and glue to glue them on.

The sentiment I cut out two white and one gold die cut of the ‘Wishing’ die and mounted them on top of each other, with the gold on top. I stamped a secondary sentiment from the stamp set that goes with the Wishing die, on black card with white embossing powder, and put a tiny stripe of the gold card at the bottom of the trimmed sentiment. 

So quite quick and easy once I had made the roses with the dies.
