Roses Are RedCompleted by Darlene Handorff
OccasionIt?s all here and will be great for a special wedding anniversary wish, just add the love.
This would be a natural to just print and cut and it is so richly colored.
I printed this pattern onto gloss photo paper and cut out the pattern pieces. I layered the main piece onto a gold card stock and then onto a heavy grade textured red folded card. When folded to accommodate the front pattern width the back is short and I always add to the back to make it the same or a little wider. I used a good scrap book paper of red lattice over a golden yellow on the inside right and wrapped it around and used DST to secure which is where the adding to the width came in. Then another nice red lattice over yellow gold was added to the left as insert to match. I used DST to center the unused champagne, with red glasses and rose. The front was decoupaged w/dimensional last with the glasses and rose. I also attached the anniversary tag to the champagne bottle and made it look as tied onto the bottle using a little crystal clear glue and red pen. So rich and so well worth the effort.
