Hello, my crafty friends. Today we are having the first
Friends of Flourishes Challenge. We were challenged with the theme of Pearls and Lace. For my lace, I used the square lacy die. I added it over a white dry embossed dotted layer which was adhered to the card base. I colored my poinsettia from the Flourishes
Year in Flowers 3 stamp set. I used another die to cut and emboss the image. I added my pearls in the corners. I had a strand of silver embellishments and I snipped off pieces of it to place around the the image to give it more of a festive feel.
Be sure to visit the other team members and see the cards they have made to "wow" you today.
Wow, Shirley, this card is out of this world gorgeous!! Love the frilly lace look on top of the dotted background, and the way you layered up the poinsettia with the pearls and silver strands looks AMAZING!! This card is magnificent!!
