Romantic Rose

I have a ton of stamps of roses, but there is something about the rose from a springtime day (a•muse studio) it has a very vintage look to it, and I thought it would be good for a faux parchment technique card.

It has a lot of elements I haven't used in a very long time.  Eyelets are so easy to apply with the Cropadile, but I can't even remember the last time I used them.  It took me longer to find my eyelets than it did to make the whole rest of the card.  I love this corner punch, but it is so rare that I think to put fancy corners on my cardstock.  The vellum and the painted paper are leftovers from a card I did a couple of weeks ago.  Sheer ribbon, heated to make it curl, topped with a button tied with scrapper's floss - I haven't done that in a  long time, but it's still an elegant finish to a card.  There is enough room for a sentiment, should I need to add one.
