Summer Heat

This is the name of the challenge at Avadares:

I wish we had the summer heat here!  We are currently winter and at the moment are having day after day of rain - good for crafting but not for much else!  Talking of crafting, here is the card I created for this challenge:

I used the Avadares digi stamp that was provided.   For the background, I used a Kate Knight paper from the Summer Tropical collection.  The image has been coloured using copic markers and glossy accents for the droplets.   The image was then die-cut using a Spellbinders die that I purchased recently.  The ribbon is some from an American Crafts set and the roses used are white ribbon roses coloured with copic marker to match the ribbon and background paper.  The sentiment is a digi image from TLC Creations.
