Altenew October Challenge

Good Evening!

My entry to the Altenew October Challenge.
When I saw this month's challenge at Altenew, I immediately knew what I wanted to do. I just had received a couple of new stamp sets from Altenew and one of them was this beautiful Sketchy Rose. Just beautiful!! This months's theme is From the Craft Room: Chocolate Delight. Challenge's graphic is shown below.

I watercolored the rose with Fried Brick and Peeled Paint Distress Inks and to get some detail I added a little bit of Wink of Stella Glitter pen. For the background I used Antique Linen Distress Ink. For the frame I used Gathered Twigs Distress Ink on a craft cardstock. The sentiment is also from Altenew and it was inked with Versafine Onyx Black. Here is the close up taken from a different angle that the shine from the glitter pen and embossing can be seen a little bit better. 


Here's the challenge graphic.


Thank you for stopping by today and have a wonderful day!
