Rosy, White and Blue

I've never been a fan of the red, white & blue color combo, but this card came together with ease.  After coloring a rose from an old set (anyone know the name?)  by Stampin' Up!, it seemed natural to pair it with this old piece of SU polka dot paper.


A Hero Arts sentiment on a tiny die cut and a pre-made satin bow, taken off some packaging, was all that was needed to finish it off.


Hope you enjoyed my "atypical Colleen" card today!

I'm not familiar with this set, but I sure do love how bright, clean, and crisp this looks! Of course, the polka dots are near and dear to my heart, too. Very pretty!
