Aqua rose


I saw the Caardvarks challenge and couldn't resist making a card to suit.I really love the core'dinations cardstock so I thought I'd make the monochrome card using it.
The image is one of my own digi range (rose) available from A Passion for Stamps. I've coloured it with aqua and turquoise Promarkers and am also entering it for the following challenges.
The Pink Elephant ....aqua
Passion for Promarkers... in the garden
Paperplay....no patterned paper
DareU2DigiStamp...flowers
Our Creative Corner...blooming blossoms
Sketch and Stash...new stamen and watering can punches
Papercutz...digi image
Cupcake ...no square cards
I've added some really fine glitter to the rose to highlight the petals and I hope you can see this in the photo, Ruth
