I needed a multi-layered card for someone is is about to have a birthday and makes cards with 42,000 layers and 42,000 added details.
I saw some flowers that were pretty much dead the other day, but they were still pretty and had some dew on them in the morning. I tried to replicate them here. I love how it came out.
I changed the colors, added a few more flowers, used an ef, and added a lot of glitter and Stickles.
Joan - I could case every card you have ever made - your gallery is stunning!!!! Hope you have fun looking at all the fun cases of your cards.
PT - close to 42,000!

Holy Guacamole Girlfriend-you are smokin the gallery with this card. My browser came to a screeching halt when this was scrolling across my screen. You, me, and Colleen need to open us a Shabby Chic Store....lol This is gorgeous. From the enchanting flowers to the scrumptious embossing it is dreamy. You need to enter this in a lot of challenges-It's a winner!!!!

Wow! Wow!! Wow!!! I noticed that I am not the only one who had this reaction. Your color scheme, layering, detailing and those flowers....Awesome. I sure hope you frame this and hang it on the wall.
Nancy this is stunning! You made that hydrangea perfectly. I have a plant that has blue flowers and one that has lime green flowers. The green one looks a lot like your creation. They're as pretty when they're dead as when they're fresth. Anyway your whole card is lovely.
