I am hooked! Or perhaps I should say "I am addicted" to making flowers out of cardstock! (My husband would definitely agree with that statement - LOL!) Today's card was made for the Cheery Lynn Design's Card Challenge #66 "Add a Flourish".
The overall look I was attempting to make with this card was one of soft, muted colors. Have you ever taken a walk during a soft rain in early Spring, and looked at the landscape? Everything looks so soft and pastel. I guess if I were looking for the right term, I would say it is "fairylike". For this card, I used some Vellum inside the frame to mute the Spellbinder's Fantastic Flourish Three. I then added two daisy-type flowers in full bloom, and one daisy about to burst into bloom. There are three small, very pastel pink roses tucked in this spray, along with some olive branches and a Mini Fanciful Flourish.
Thanks for visiting!
Paper Hugs,
