A rose is a rose - 411 Color Inspiration #116

I just love this stamp set and have used it for so many challenges. This challenge was to use the following colours together:  Old Olive, Basic Black, Rose Red, Pretty in Pink.
Here's how I made the card.
Rose:
I clear embossed the image on watercolour paper, and coloured the image with Rose Red and Pretty in Pink markers- applying a little colour and blending with the Aqua pen. The dew drops are Crystal Effects.
After the image was dry, it was cut out and adhered to the Rose Red card stock, matted with black, using Stampin'  Dimensionals.   Along one edge of the red and black mat I placed an edge punched with new edge punch.
Leaves:
Old Olive paper was folded in half and put through the Crimper side ways, and the leaves cut along the fold line. The leaves were attached with Tombo glue.
A drop of crystal effects was placed on each corner of the Rose Red Card Stock.
The basic card is Rose Red, upon which a polka dot embossed Pretty in pink was adhered. 
Ribbon is silk Old Olive.
