I have made a few cards lately that are not my usual style which is why I love the challenges. It is good to be pushed out of your comfort zone and do something different, but for this Anything Goes Challenge at DIES R US CHALLENGE BLOG , I reverted back to my usual stlye. I got this Poppy Stamp die a few months ago and I have used it for so many cards. It is intended to be an easle card and I have done some of them, but I also have used it for the front of an A2 card like I have done here.
I cut the base die from white card stock and sponged it with distress ink. Then I cut the leafy portion of the die. I stamped and embossed ths Impression Obsession sentiment in gold and cut it with an old Spellbinders scalloped ovals die. I left it in the die and sponged around the die. To finish it off I added one of the flowers from my stash and my Sue Wilson berries from the Festive Garland set.
Beautiful card Kathy! I have always admired your floral cards as they are stunning and this is one of them...gorgeous!
