Simple Pomegranate Roses
This weeks’ TLC challenge on SCS is to make a quick and easy card that can be made in about 10 minutes. Well that is a challenge for me! I like to fiddle around with my cards till they are “just right”. It generally takes me an hour to make a card. If it’s less than that–its a bonus, LOL! My philosophy is “all good things come in time”. So why rush it? 
So, with the challenge in mind, I grabbed an old standby–Roses in Winter. It’s a great set for making a quick card. I thought it would look lovely in pomegranate ink, with accents of wasabi and guava.
There’s nothing fancy to tell ya on this card. Simple 2-step stamping, a little distressing around the focal image, a little stitched ribbon, Stickles glitter around the blossoms, and some piercing to finish it off. Card measures 5×5 Easy Peasy!
I’ll be back tonight for the drawing of Trudee Treats!
Stamps: roses in winter, butterfly kisses (papertrey)
Ink: pomegranate, guava, wasabi, memories black
Paper: papertrey white, pomegranate, guava
Accessories: mat pack, stickles, stitched ribbon, dimensionals, distresser tool

This certainly is a beautiful card for being quick and simple! I’d have a hard time with that, too — quite a challenge and you pulled it off splendidly!

Oh yummmmm…I just love these colors together and your roses are stunning! Beautiful card Trudee. I was stamping my new inks this afternoon to see what they looked like and though this would make an awesome combo too. It is funny how often we think alike.
