Welcome back to the mid-way point at The Flower Challenge. There’s still plenty of time to get “your sparkle on” and join in the fun.
Once again, it was a bit tricky to show the extent of sparkle on this card, but believe me, I tried!
I used the Altenew Wallpaper Art Stamp and die to create the florals stamped in black archival ink once onto card and then a second time onto velum die cut with matching dies which were placed on top of the card, I know you can’t see it but it’s there . Some of the leaves were cut from glitter card and others were stamped. I added a touch of glitter to the center of the flower and for extra sparkle I got out my silver stickles to add a little touch of sparkle hither and thither. The blooms were placed inside my Sizzix mason jar with some embossed mirror card and a few sequins.
We do hope you will join us at The Flower Challenge the design team has some amazing cards to delight and inspire and we look forward to seeing your fabulous entries.
In other news, It’s a hectic time of year for me as we own a jewellery store and the Christmas shopping hours mean we work from dawn till dusk every day until the new year except Christmas day so please forgive my tardiness in my slow commenting I can assure you I will get there.
Wishing you all a fabulous weekend.

Marie, I love the modern CAS look of this gorgeous card! Using the silver glitter paper for one of the leaf stems really amps up the sparkle, that’s for sure!
Happy Holidays to you and your family, and I hope you have a restful day on Christmas, because I’m sure you’re hopping today and tomorrow.
