Rose Clock

It's time for a quick and easy stamped card for a little  inspiration.  This stunning image comes from the Stamp-It Discovery Collection and is called Rose Clock.  It's a large image which covers the front of your card and makes a gorgeous centerpiece, it measures (when stamped approx 3.5 x 2.5 inches).    To highlight the image, I really wanted to bring out the pink, so I used alcohol ink makers to color the rose.
After coloring the rose, I used Chalk inks to brush the edges of the torn paper.  I used wonderful shimmery purple metallic based paper from Crafter's Companion as the background on this card and punched pink paper.  I just love the saying it has "Gather the Rose of Love whilst there is yet Time.  Edmund Spensor."  

Last week's candy winner gets One set of Rock-a-blocks PLUS a set of Popcorn Bear stamps, the winner will be announced tomorrow, so check back to find out if the winner is you!

Now, on to the new prize!!  This week's prize is a wonderful addon for the Ultimate tool, it's called The Boxer and the Envelobox Bundle with the Advanced Techniques CD (CLICK HERE)!  It's a wonderful Kit worth $35;  As in the previous contests, you simply need to leave a comment here AND you need to be a member on both the Crafter's Companion USA Challenge Blog (Click here) and the Crafter's Companion blog (Click here).  If you are already a member, just a leave a comment here to be eligible.  Else, go join these blogs and then leave a comment here.  Just like the previous contests this month, EVERY design team member is giving away blog candy from Crafter's Companion, so when you drop by the company blogs, there will be links to the Design Team member blogs.  Go drop by the other designer's blogs and sign up for their blog candy too, that will give you many more chances to win!! Good luck.
