Roses for my sweets


Happy Friday and another Power Poppy Peep of the week challenge! Haven't played along yet? Well now is your chance. Here are the details:

HERE’S HOW TO PLAY IN OUR PEEP OF THE WEEK CHALLENGE: All you need to do to get in the running for the Power Poppy Peep of the Week is use the linky below and share a new Power Poppy creation. Just that simple! It can be anything — a card, an altered item, a 3D creation, a set of cards, ANYTHING! We can't tell you how much we love to see what you create!

OFFICIAL RULES:
  • Use Power Poppy Stamps on your creation! 
  • Link up your creation using the Linky below (It helps us to find you! Although it’s not a necessity to win. We scour creations all over the web!).
  • Could you please mention the Peep of the Week challenge in your blog or gallery post with a link back to this blog post? We would sure love it if you did! 
  • We’ll accept entries up until Thursday @3PM EST and will announce the Power Peeps of the Week next Friday for our Peep of the Week post. 
  • Every link counts as one entry in our monthly drawing for a FREE STAMP SET OF CHOICE!


Now for my creation today. Went for a masculine sorta Valentine today. Slate grey, white and red were the colors I thought that would work. I kept the embellishments to a minimum although I have to say my husband doesn't mind too much.  :-)  I wanted a few roses so I have one for the outside with a lattice window into the inside sentiment. I have a tutorial on how I created the Lattice Window if you want to create your own. Very easy and is a cool look. 


This rose is called La Vie En Rose and is part of our new Instant Garden Digital release every month. Beautifully drawn by Marcy and so much fun to color. I have the added sentiment version on the inside for you below. I love how this turned out and I know that my husband will to. The frame is with Spellbinders Label Twenty five die. I can't find the lattice die on the site, so maybe its discontinued or I just need to look harder.  :)  Any lattice die would work. Easy Peasy today. Hope you can play along this week.
