Today's CAS challenge on Splitcoast was posted late last night and as I was up with my daughter, who is sick again with the flu, I was able to make my card around 1am. Unfortunately it's raining cats and dogs here and the light is awful. I've been waiting all day for the sun comes out, so that I can photograph it, but it's not happening, so I'm afraid the picture is pretty poor quality today - sorry!
I really wanted to use these Prima flowers I bought a few weeks ago, but felt like I was cheating because there's so little stamping involved. So I added some Gold Glimmer Blingz to the inside petals so I could at least get my fingers messy. And anyway, we need sparkle on such a rainy day!
These flowers are so purdy - I know I'm going to hoard them because there are only 5 or 6 in a package!
Enjoy your day!
Supplies:
Stamps: Manuscript Background (Hero Arts)
Paper: Vintage Cream (PTI), Birds in Paradise (Graphic 45)
Ink: Antique Linen Distress Ink (Ranger), Gold Glimmer Blingz (Shimmerz)
Accessories: Flower from Swaney Collection (Prima)
Ali, This card is so beautiful!! Sweet flower!!
Hope your daughter is felling better...!
Greetings,
Saskia

Oh, this is WONDERFUL! I love how you stamped the HA background on the card, used the pp strip border and those flowers are hoard-worthy for sure!
