The Flower Challenge #69 Reminder

 

You have two more weeks to add your yellow and blue floral cards to our

Here's a simple reminder of how beautifully these colors represent our
prayers for the Ukrainian people!  The sentiment sure fits!


Altenew Paint a Flower Camellia, and coordinating stencils.  
I used only two CP inks: Drive-in [blue] and Limoncello [yellow]
Then a stitched outline from a SSS die set called Shimmer Oval for a little added interest.
The sentiment is also from the Camellia set. 

Okay!  Enough from me - let's go see all the beautiful reminders from my teamies, and our wonderful guest, my friend Nancy Penir!

This is a gorgeous and encouraging card Michele! I love how you embossed the stitched circle around the gorgeous flowers. The sentiment is so true, so many are much stronger than they know. Hugs, Brenda

Ahhh-mazing work for this challenge, Michele. The Ukrainian people have certainly shown how strong they are. I dearly hope they can persevere.

Beautiful Michele, I love that oval embossed frame and the fact that it cuts into the leaves and doesn't matter at all. I say that because I would have just thought it was too small so I wouldn't have done it, but it works really very well. I must remember these lessons you teach me xx

This is so gorgeous, Michele. You achieved such wonderful depth of color with only 2 inks. I love the stitched oval impression and the die cut on top. It really does add so much to your design. I love the curved sentiment too.
