Stampin up wild rose

Finally back to some stamping for a birthday card for my mums birthday this month... i made a bit of a mess with the chalk for the background but it blended better once I wiped with a tissue (after i took the photo of course!).....

I made the rose with versamark and chalk and cut out to layer.. added glossy accents to the white parts ofthe rose and leaves....

stamped frenchscript background and silhouette sentiments around the edges in black then added some versamark around the edge and chalk to blend (lol)
