White with one other colour & Sketch Saturday

Todays card is for the Just Magnolia challenge white with one other colour, and Sketch Saturday.

 

My colour combo is White with Pink. the backing paper is from the Love letters collection by Mindy Terasawa, I think they are fab.

The stamp is Patiently Waiting Tilda from Simon says Stamps, 

the flowers are from Wild Orchid crafts and I used 25mm two tone Hybrid tea roses, sweet heart blossoms, 15mm white open roses and last I used 2 tone pink/white Gladioli. I didn't colour her shoes I put some top coat nail polish to give them the patent leather look.

I wish you all the very best for 2012. bye for now
