Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #206 - Floral Delight

Hello my dear visitors.  So pleased you decided to drop by.

It is time for  another Challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers.  Mary is our host this time around and the Theme is Floral Delight!   As always, anything you care to create is fine as long as it has lots of lovely flowers!!

Well, if you know my work, you know this Challenge is right up my alley!!  I love to add flowers to my cards .. to the feminine ones that is .. so, of course I made a feminine card!

The papers I have used are by Kaisercraft and they are from the Rose Avenue Paper Pad.  In keeping with the Theme, I have used some floral papers as well as a script design.
 I have layered some floral laces in between the papers and, underneath the cluster, you can see the Chloe Stem Die by Memory Box to which I have added a few tiny pearls for a bit of bling!
The other die cut is called Elegant Lines by Altenew.  This one was cut in half so I could spread it out so as it would not be hidden underneath the cluster.
Of course, I had to add some prills and micro beads as well.

Added some colour to the larger blooms.  For the pink, I used Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Spray in Salt Water Taffy ..
.. and for the yellow I used watered down Distress Ink Re-inker in Squeezed Lemonade.
More prills and micro beads.
Also added some floral paper to decorate the inside.

Would love for you to pop on over to the Crafty Cardmakers Blog to take a look at the wonderful inspiration by the rest of the Team and, while you're there, why not join in the fun and link up your entry!!  Looking forward to seeing your take on the Challenge!!
