Card for FMS Sketch #644

Made this for Sketch Challenge #644 at Freshly Made Sketches. I recently bought a card kit from Simon Says Stamp and these beautiful papers came with it. I love how easy it is to coordinate papers when they all come in the same paper pad! The roses inspired me to use an old set from Altenew - Vintage Roses. The set consists of layered stamps which are a bit of a challenge to line up....but thanks to the MISTI and a little patience, I was able to stamp several flowers and various leaves. A few months ago, I created a little swatch book of all my inks so that came in very handy when choosing all my ink colors. I usually make birthday cards, but these papers prompted me to make a thinking-of-you card which I will be sending to someone who is homebound. I'm sure it will bring a smile. Thanks to all at FMS for providing such inspiring sketches!
