Wreath of roses...

Did you wonder how I made the wreath that was on my Valenting Gift Certificate Card yesterday?  I thought I would show you today ~

Flower Trim #126869 page 5 SC

Paper Doilies #129399 page 5 SC

I used these two products from Stampin' Up!'s Spring Catalog (SC).  You receive 2 yards of roses in each package and 24 doilies, 4" diameter.  I love the roses just as they are but decided I wanted roses in a different.  To make the wreath on the card I colored the roses with my markers ~ directly on the flowers.  Then yesterday I created another wreath ~ a blue one to go on a Portfolio ~

3. Using Island Indigo marker to highlight each rose

4. Add Shaker Frame, remove wax circle on top
