NOT the sort of flowers you want in your garden. But I've given up trying to keep them out, because even if I get the lawn clear, more seeds will blow in from neighbours.
A2 base, both papers are Basic Grey Basics - one kraft, one manila. I added two black snaps to the base layer. Image layer was stamped on the manila paper with Versafine Black, cut with Labels 8, sponged with blue and green and then embossed with Swiss Dots. I stamped the top dandelion head again, added sparkle and then two layers of EP. It's popped up on foam. I added the same butterfly I used on my first card, sponged lightly with orange, and again with knotted embroidery cotton for the antennae.
DH approves of this one - the weekend starts now!
This is also for the Penny Black Saturday challenge, which was one circle, two papers, three flowers. Well, there are three stamped flowers!

wonderful card, love all the texture, as a kid I thought dandelions were so pretty covering a lawn and couldn't figure out why everyone tried to get rid of them. It wasn't until I moved to NY and had them that it all made sense. After 4 years of weed control twice a year I still have some, oh well, they are still pretty, love how you popped up the one dandelion in the center, nicely done, TFS
