Lavender Roses

Welcome to March at Die Cut Diva's for our new challenge, sponsored by-

Cheapo Dies is offering a $15 gift certificate,

 which goes a long way.

The challenge is to submit a project which is monochrome in color.

Here is my project-

One of my Mom's favorite flowers are roses. She had several lavender roses in her yard, and this card is a homage to her gardening. I'm leaving a sentiment off for now, but I will stamp on the lower right hand corner for the occasion I need it for! Here are the materials I used-

1. Dies: roses (Elizabeth Craft Designs, but this flower one by Cheapo Dies would work as well).
2. Paper: various shades of purple cardstock (stash).
3. Embellishment: rhinestone flourish (Zva Creative).

Note: I looked up Cheapo dies that were similar to the ones I already own. They USED to have a rose like this-but it has been retired. The die I suggested can easily replace my roses.
