Thank You Flower


I've got a card this evening for Freshly Made Sketches and Addicted to CAS (Code Word: Flower).  I found this gorgeous flower in a pile of bits and bobs waiting for their turn to shine on a card.  I made it ages ago using a smooshing technique I saw on Jennifer McGuire's blog.  I have a few others too but don't have any leaves which may be why they've sat unused for so long.  I'll either have to get off my butt and make some leaves or get more creative!  



Supplies Used:
Cardstock:  (White) Papertrey Ink, (Watercolor) Ranger, (Daffodil Delight, Basig Grey, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Stamps:  (Flower from Hennah Elements) Altenew
Inks:  (VersaMark) Tsukineko, (Worn Lipstick & Fossilized Amber Distress Inks) Ranger
Embossing Powder:  (Opaque Bright White Super Fine) Wow
Die:  (Thank You) Poppy Stamps
Other:  (Nuvo White & Ebony Black Crystal Drops) Tonic

Great idea to combine these challenges Jen, your card is beautiful! I love the colour that you chose for your flower.

I think you were plenty creative to see that flower, see that sketch - and put them together! Your elements combine into a very cool card.

The flower is lovely with its softly blended colors. So dramatic with the black accents. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.

I love the color of the flower, Jen, and the contrast between the black stripes and yellow sentiment.

Such a pretty pastel bloom and I love how you contrasted it with the bold sentiment, too! Great job combining challenges, Jen! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Addicted to CAS!
