Pierced Rose Background

 Hi crafters!  No sentiment on this one so I have named after the die!  I cut the Pierced Rose Mini Background out of gloss white card and embossed it.  I added a sticky adhesive sheet to the back of the die, then used a piece of decorative paper from my Classic Elegance Paper pad behind that.  Next I inked a piece of white card with a Forest Moss Distress ink and re cut the background.  I removed all the pieces that were not leaves and then pushed the leaves into place on the original (slightly moving them into place for a better fit).  The remaining background area that had sticky adhesive still exposed, I used Diamond Snow glitter and burnished it into place.  I made two dimensional roses from the Sweetheart Flowers set and sugared them with Iced Snow.  I added them to the corner and seated them on some white seam binding I tied into a messy bow.  I added two triple pearl stick pins as accents.  I would have made some nice matching stick pins, but this card was made while I was demoing at the trade show earlier this year and I had those in my demo unit! LOL  The card was completed with a simple white pierced mat, a thin wisteria mat and a final white layer.  The finished dimensions are 5 3/4" x  7" in size.  All for now, Sue x
