Today's set, called "Huge Blooms", is a lovely one.. Sunflowers are always so pretty!
My first instinct when I saw the set was to use the biggest flower. Lovely!
I loved how the colouring turned out so I decided to do it again with the smaller image, only this time I decided to make the flower a bit more 3D.
The lace embossing folder used on vellum is so pretty I will definitely be using this technique over and over! Combined with the paper tole flower and some baker's twine make a fairly quick card look that much more special.
I hope you enjoyed my cards today! The fun is not over though, talented Toni is
next on the hop! Don't miss out on visiting the rest of the amazing

ReplyDeleteWow your first card is awesome. I love the colors and that embossing folder. And I'm not sure what type of texture you used on your last card but I love it and would like to know what you did to get it.
