I've been getting in to using this Cuttlebug cut/emboss die folder lately - it's an oldie but still a goodie. BIG GRIN.

I'm using a bunch of sentiment stamps and the rose bouquet stamp from Quietfire Design

I cut 3 of the Cuttlebug Emboss Plus "Brocade Window" pieces from white cardstock. Adhered one to the edge of my base card for the front. Adhered the 2nd one to the inside flap matching the position to the front flap one, and the 3rd to the inside. The base card is black.

Colored some watercolor paper with Dylusions sprays on both sides, dried, then die cut with Marianne Designs "0162" set for the main flower and the base of the flower from "L031" set. Used a large balled stylus to massage the paper prior rolling in to shape. Adhered to inside of card.

Die cut the leaves (Cheery Lynn "Rose Leaf Strip")  from white cardstock and shaped them before adhering both to the roses and to the front of the card. added a narrow red ribbon bow to the front group of leaves.

Stamped the sentiment with Versafine Black Onyx and clear embossed, then cut close to the stamping adding the notched edge on one side. adhered to card front and added the large pearl.

Wrote the word "roses" with a 6mm parallel pen, then scanned it and eCut as well as a eCut shadow layer. Top layer was colored with a red Distress marker, Versamark applied and clear embossed then adhered to the shadow layer of white cardstock then on to the card.

I stamped the word "Just Because" with the black, clear embossed and cut close to stamping adding the picot edge then on to inside page of card adding two small white pearls.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments with Versafine "Habanera" and embossed with red embossing powder. added soem shading and highlights with a white Prisma colored pencil.

Stamped the rose bouquet with the black, clear embossed and colred with a red prisma colored pencil, then fussy cut around the image and adhered to card adding the narrow red ribbon bow.

Punced a couple butterflies (Martha Stewart "Large Monarch") from white cardstock, applied Versamark and embossed with Sticky embossing powder, then sprinkled with Distress Glitter "Star Dust"
