Since it's an "anything goes with florals" challenge, I thought I'd combine it with a few blooms I cut from the left over water-colored panel I created yesterday. LOve using snippets!
Congratulations on the new Challenge, Aileen! You've tons of gorgeous entries in your gallery already - so happy for you, and your fabulous design team!
Here's my card ...
SSS Hydrangea Petals
Altenew Floral Sprig set for sentiment
Distress inks for water-coloring
Finally using that Glass Glitter I HAD to have
because of the fabulous Therese Calvird - here's her card! - so stunning!
I think it's only fair that I also send it over to Inspired by All the Little Things, too!
Sorry about the double dip today ... but thanks, if your day allowed a second visit, I appreciate it so much!

ReplyDeletethis is the ONLY double dipping I will tolerate! And the BEST kind TOO:))
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE the thread wrap!! So Glad you linked to Inspired By all the Little Things!
Whoooooaaaaaaa. This is now all over my Pinterest board. I pinned it as soon as I pikced my jaw up from the floor. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Love the little bit of sparkle in the center.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you made use of the rest of that water-colored panel - these colours are so gorgeous and I love the font on the sentiment!
ReplyDeleteSuper sweet Michele, the twine is genius!
ReplyDeleteAn exquisitely pretty card, Michele! Glass glitter - I think I have some of that in my stash (for years now...) - time to use it - thanks for the wonderful inspiration!!!!

ReplyDeleteHey! Who cares about a double dip when the "find" looks like this? Amazing and beautiful! Love the silver thread too
ReplyDeletebeautimus! Love, love your take!
ReplyDeleteI just typed a "novel" telling you how much I LOVE this card, and blogger kicked it out :(
ReplyDeleteGorgeous watercoloring, and I really love how you placed the Glass Glitter in the center of the flowers! Love how you wrapped it like a lovely 'package', and the texture on your card base is perfect, Michele! I'll stop before I get kicked out again...Hugs, Barb
Another beauty! Love seeing these colors again--perfect for your sweet blooms!

ReplyDeleteSuch a fabulous card Michele! I love the delicate coloured flowers, so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing with us over at The Flower Challenge and we hope to see you again soon ;) Viv DT xx
ReplyDeleteOh that is beautiful! I love the colouring on the flowers - very artsy - and I like the added elements - the thread in particular. Thank you so much for playing along in our first Flower Challenge! xx
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, this is beautiful, Michele! Those flowers are so very pretty. I am so happy for you that you were able to use some of that beautiful watercoloring that you used on the previous card. Those colors are so serene and striking. The addition of the string adds the perfect amount of texture and interest and the sentiment is so encouraging. Great use of that glitter you had to have as well. All around awesome card! So happy you double dipped! :) Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you used the leftover paper from the winning ;) card, Michele. This one is gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, more eye candy with those gorgeous colours, and that glass glitter looks amazing as your flower centers!
