For this birthday card, I used a Rose stamp image from Studio Katia with matching die. The rose is clear embossed, then watercolored, using stamp reinker as the coloring agent. Since I think this rose blossom is gorgeous, I wanted to keep it as the focal point by using a very simple layout and a simple sentiment.
