Blooming


Bright colours and quirky details make this week's Daring Cardmakers
dare challenging :0)
Rein's chosen brilliant theme

FOCUS ON FLOWERS

'we often use flowers on our cards, but often as an added embellishment to the "main act", so this week, please make them the main feature of your creations  and let them really show off their beauty.'

Don't forget to check fabulous creation from our Design Team fro inspiration here

My blooms :

This card is made from pattern paper's leftovers. I keeping all trims in one file and when I need some quick cards to make I use them. So simple!



Layered paper Prima Marketing and felt Hobbycraft  flowers 

Green stitches for the stems and triangles for the leafs (painted with green chalk)

I've used Letraset letter transfers and Melissa Frances rub-ons for sentiment

and Tesco gem heart  for shiny flower center.



'I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.'

~Edna St. Vincent Millay, "Afternoon on a Hill"



Sending blooming blessings and love!
Have a fantastic blooming afternoon!
