Love this technique! I used larkspur from my garden. Stamped the sentiment from Herb Expression. cut it out with the Oval Scallop die. Used Glassy Glaze and did cracked glass on it, Pierced some holes on the scallops. Layered it on Paradise designer paper and added some vanilla satin ribbon and some olive taffeta.
Happy 4th to you all!

Funny, when you mentioned your love of flowers and your flower garden today, I thought this would have been a fabulous technique for you. I need to do this. It looks just beautiful. Your card with the cracked glass is something else, girl.

This turned out beautifully. I had great fun with this technique - I've only finished one card so far, but I've 'pounded' a lot of flowers this week! Love that you did the cracked glass on this - and your bow is perfectly sweet. Great job!

Cracked glass is perfect for this technique! Why didn't I thinmk of it? I think that will preserve the colors better. this is a very pretty design too!
