A flower blossoms for its own joy



I’m sharing a card I made for a friend’s birthday featuring the flower from the Beautiful Day set by Altenew.


To make up my card I used the inspiration photo from the current Altenew challenge.  I picked up the two flowers and three leaves as well as the layout and the sequin embellies and used them on my card.

I went with pink for my flowers and cardstock mats as it is think pink for breast cancer awareness over at Casual Fridays.  And, as my card features a layered stamp I am also linking it up at Less is More.  To add interest I stamped the outline of the flowers and leaves with embossing ink and added gold embossing powder.  I used the same embossing powder for the sentiment, which also comes in the same set, and finished off the card with gold sequins.

Ingredients:
Chalks & Powders etc
Embellishments
Gold Sequins from stash
Inks & Paints etc
Papers
Bazzill Smoothie Cardstock ~ White
Stampin’ Up! Cardstock ~ Flirty Flamingo & Powder Pink

  4. The pink and gold is a lovely combination for these beautiful Altenew flowers. And although you've matted the panel on a few layers, it's still wonderfully clean and simple.
    Thanks so much for sharing with us at Less is More, Anita x
