Joan's Weekly Challenge #15

This week Joan's Gardens Weekly Challenge #15  is to make a card or project which includes flowers using dies or punches.  From the entries in this challenge six Guest Designers will be chosen for a blog hop on May 15th.  You may enter more than once so I also entered my Clematis/Church card that I made for my Heartfelt Creations post today too.

I usually always color everything with Copics, but today I branched out and stamped Metallic Vellum paper with Heartfelt Creations Stamps HCPC 3406 - Botanical Floral 1 PreCut Set and HCPC 3407 - Botanical Floral 2 PreCut Set and cut them out with Spellbinders Rose Creations Shapeabilities Dies.  I used a Paper Blossom Tool Kit and Molding Mat to shape the flowers.  I added brads and brown Gala Glitz to the flower centers.  I added Ranger Diamond Stickles to some of the flower edges for some sparkle.  The sentiment is from HCPC 3308 - Agape Love PreCut Set.  I distressed the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Antique Linen and Tattered Rose and adhered it on a Spellbinders Lattice Rectangle.  The paper is Prima - Madeline Collection and I finished the card by adding some Recollection Faux Adhesive Pearls.

I am really happy how this card turned out.  I love all the dimension these handmade flowers have added.  I am definitely going to be creating more of these flowers!
