fun florals

Welcome to a new challenge here at Cardz4galz. Challenge #249 as chosen by Billie, is all about flowers and this card is my take on the challenge. I chose a doily die from GKD and cut that first. I measured it to see what size card front I would require and cut a square card at 5 and one half inches. Then I cut the PP (from Crafters Companion) slightly smaller. Before gluing I went around it with a score tool and then added gold ink over the line. Once it was dry I added the doily on top. Using some Scrapbook.com paper and some Memory box flower dies I cut my flowers and layered them together. I cut the leaves out of a mop up inked piece and then played around until I liked the placement. Glued them down and added some pops of colour to the flower centers and before it was dry added in the gold gems. I used more pops of colour at the corners and 3 additional gold gems on the doily. The sentiment is from an MFT set and I used a banner die from them to cut the back piece before adding the sentiment on top of it. I threaded some ribbon through the hole and added the bow to finish the design.

Thanks for stopping by. We hope you have fun and look forward to seeing your creations in our gallery.
