This is my second post today, this time I have a card for the Paper Smooches December Challenge - Flowers. I don't have many PS flowers (just one set that has a few small flowers in it plus the matching dies), but I didn't let that stop me from playing along :)
I cut a bunch of flowers using the PS Denim & Daisies dies in colors that match the photo, and combined and layered them in different combinations. For the Ball jar I used some PTI Aqua Mist and Hawaiian Shores inks and did some ink blending, then I splattered it with some water droplets. I wanted to incorporate the beautiful wood from the photo into my card somehow, so I decided to use the large Tree Ring Background stamp from Concord & 9th. I stamped it using Gathered Twig distress ink, then I used several shades of brown distress inks to blend inside the ring. I also added the splatters to my card with the brown distress inks. The sentiment is from PS, and I added a few gold sequins to finish the card. I figure this will card will help to brighten the day of someone who isn't feeling well :)
That's all from me today, I'll be back tomorrow with a card for the Coffee Lover's blog hop!
