The Flower Challenge - February
One of my favorite designers is guesting at The Flower Challenge and that meant I had to CASE Therese Calvird's card.
Isn't it lovely? I don't have any of the elements she used but I did manage to take inspiration from her card and make this one.
I stamped the coneflowers from Altenew's Smile More on Bristol and colored them with Zigs, I saw this technique by Julie Ebersole that helped me get the dies in place to cut a top panel that I popped up with foam. Try as I might I could not get an ombre-look stamped sentiment so I colored a scrap of vellum with my Zig, heat embossed the sentiment in white, and die cut the outline.
I'm so glad you dropped by today. I hope your day is going well.

Such a pretty color on those coneflowers, Bobby. I love the real-life look you've given them - the colors are perfect! And I like what you did with your sentiment. My attempts with an ombre look didn't work either. I totally cheated. But your card is so sweet. I just love this! Bev
Her's is ever so lovely and yours is TOO!! The color on your blooms is fabulous Bobby!

Oh this is so beautiful Bobby, love how you have embossed the image and watercoloured it, totally takes it to the next level!
Bobby, your flower colour caught my eye immediately in the Gallery, its so beautiful!! I love how you matched the die-cut in the top panel (must try this myself....) and I think your matching sentiment is perfection. Always so wonderful to see you at The Flower Challenge!!
