AEDM Day 10 - Last Rose of 2011

My husband rescued this rose from the garden before the frost hit....it seems it was the last one of 2011 for  our garden.  I was charmed by the fact that my hubby brought it in for me and set it in a vase.  It's a small fragile rose, tough in a way that it hung there and bloomed, even after we had a little snow.  I kept walking by it in my studio and tonight I decided the plucky little thing needed to be sketched....

This is also the last page for this year's Sketchbook Project for me!!  Yay!
