Word Power #2

My niece got married on February 2 and I thought the card I made for their wedding would be a great entry into Word Power's second challenge. 


My sister gave me a set from Stampin' Up that included the wonderful sentiment which was the starting point of my card.  Altenew's Framed Die was layered up around it and then the fun began with making the arrangement.  Susie sent me the colors in her bouquet and I proceeded to cut Spellbinder's Be Bold Blooms, Honey Bee's Wildflower poppy and Dogwood blossoms and TH's Wildflower from white cardstock, blending them with a variety of inks to get the colors I wanted.  Susie included a red poppy in her bouquet because it was my mother's favorite flower.  

I colored more flowers and my daughter used them to make a similar card without a sentiment but I neglected to take a picture of it.  Lisa was hoping that Susie would frame the two of them together. I do know she was delighted with both cards. 

Thanks for dropping by.
