Finally, I can post this GORGEOUS Rose Wonder slimline card that I made for my best friend, Becca, up in Iowa. And yes, she loved it!
I used the same technique that I made the Mother's Day cards with that are on my Facebook page, Stampin' with Julia. (Be sure to go check it out and leave a comment) I have found that I am really loving the Blending Brushes to color with. It works really well with outline stamps like the Rose Wonder set used here.
My slimline card measures 8 1/2" X 4", although you could do 9" X 4" and it will still fit a long envelope. Unless of course you have an envelope maker where you can make any size card you'd like. I stamped my rose image and then used the blender brushes to color them in. I then stamped the saying and cut that out and used dimensional to "pop" it up off the card and topped it off with a few "gems".
