Festive Blooms in Purple

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

It's been a super busy week, but I squeaked out enough time to make a
card for the Flower Challenge. Whew!


This is a spankin' new to me set.  My friend Michele has used this set several times
and each time I wished for it more.  It's really a Christmas set and the poinsettia is making
an appearance in my next class, but this sweet little flower needed some time to shine too.

I cut everything from Neenah Solar White.  The flower and leaves were colored with
blending brushes and Distress ink.  I used the pierced background die too and the
stenciled leaves were done using left over ink on the brush and the outcuts of the leaves.

I used Jen M.'s sketch for Freshly Made Sketches #709 for the layout.

I don't usually do square cards but it left a good opportunity to let some of the leaves 
come off the edge and it will still fit well into an envelope. 

thus the choice of the flower.

And since this is a debut for this die set, I'll take it over to Darnell's
