I think it was last week or maybe the week before I did a card with a garden of hollyhocks. This design piece was still laying on my table and it seemed perfect for a tall, skinny card! And that was the CAS challenge this week on SCS.
Or is this a gladiolus? Hmm...maybe I need to get my flower book out and check!
I stamped the image with Black StazOn painted with ink and a blender pen. The card is 3 1/4" x 6 1/4" and fits in the SU open end envelope. I'm not sure why one of the rhinestones doesn't shine like the rest. Maybe I need to replace that before I send it out!

A gorgeous, summery card Bonnie! This is such a beautiful hostess set - and I just haven't used it enough!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I think it might be a gladiolus, now that you mention it! Whatever we shall call it, I call it a beautiful use of something already laying on your desk, and clever to make it fit a challenge!
