The Flower Challenge #106 - a Sketch!

Here's a challenge from The Flower Challenge that I think you'll love as much as we do!  It is no secret that I have just loved using sketches to inspire my cards for many years and they continue to do so!  Ready... sketch:

... and my very literal interpretation:


Featuring a gorgeous press plate from Alex Syberia Designs: Elegant Blooms
pressed with Altenew's Crystal Violet ink then I cut the circle using one of the many circle frame dies from EH, and finished with a sentiment
from ASD's With Sympathy stamp and cut with its coordinating die.

We hope you'll enjoy creating your own floral cards using our sketch!

Oooh your card reminds me of Copenhagen blue dinnerware--but much, much prettier!
