~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE FLOWER CHALLENGE has arrived at the halfway point so, here is my reminder card and I hope you come and join us in our gallery.


**********************************************
This is the INSIDE.


And this is what I used.

Flourishes "Lenten Rose" (2011), stamped on Bristol Vellum surface paper.
I fussy cut just the right side of the flowers following THIS VIDEO from
the fabulous Therese Calvird, I love her blog Lost in Paper
Please scroll down her page, you'll find it towards the bottom.
Prismacolor pencils.
Gina Marie Enamel Dots.

I hope you come by THE FLOWER CHALLENGE blog to get more inspiration from my amazing teammates, there's still time to play, the challenge closes on the 25th.
Thank you for visiting me today.
Stay healthy and safe.
XO
Maria.

LOVE your beautiful card and design Maria. Those Lenten Roses are gorgeous. Love the cutting around the right side to expose the deep, saturated colour underneath. Fabulous! xx

A very striking design Maria. Fussy cutting the flowers just really makes the card pop along with your royal purple card stock. Another winner in my book.

Oh, beautiful, Maria! I love the cut out edge. The golden "amazing" says it all!

Bobby said...

The partial die cutting makes a unique edge to show off the purple paper on one side and your lovely flowers on the other. Beautiful card, Maria.
