Raindrops on Roses inspired my coloring for this beautiful retired stamp. The layout was inspired by Tracy's card. The main image is retired but you can still find the decorative corner die, swirls stamp and die, little posies stamps and die, decorative square, and paper lace die in the store.

I used Prismacolor pencils to color this image. The rose and leaves are topped with Stickles and I used a bit of Glossy Accents on the cup details.

I used Wheatfields Glimmer Mist to give shine to the little flowers and green swirls.

Thanks for stopping by!

Love this beautifully colored layered card. It takes a while to take it all in. The cup with the flower looks like it should be sitting on someone's desk. Love it. Thanks
