First the card ...
I was listening to Where the Wild Roses Grow by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and this card kind of popped into my head!! I stamped the large rose once and the smaller rose twice from the Immortal Love onto kraft core coredinations and heat sert before cutting out. I stamped the Music background onto cardstock and cut out 6 squares using my nesties. I cut another 3 squares from the same cards stock and then stamped the barbed wire from the Immortal Love set onto them. I distressed all the edges. I diecut the banner and stamped the love sentiment from the Immortal Love set onto it before adding some gems. Finally I layered up the roses.

I stamped the large rose from the Immortal Love set out and colorured it using my pens. Using black soot distress ink I stamped the border using the Grunge flourish stamp and the barbed wire and love sentiment from the Immortal Love set and then embossed them with clear embossing powder. I then covered the tag wit fired brick distress in k and covered that with clear embossing powder and heated - this gives it the rusty texture. I went over the tag using vintage photo distress ink in order to age it, before popping the rose onto 3d foam pads and adding some stained seam binding.Make it Monday
