This is a birthday card for my SIL Renee. Both pieces of very light pink paper are some very old card stock (Lasting Impressions) ...the piece right behind the flower has these fine black lines in it but you can't see them in the photo. The flower is a free SVG from BirdsCards
Both were cut on my Cricut using my computer and cutting program SCAL. (Sure Cuts A lot)The large pearl is from Jo Ann's and the glass beads are around the base of the pearl (another thing you cannot see in the photo). The tendrils are pieces from a Memory Box die cut. I saw the idea for this on a card I found on Pinterst. I will see if I can find the website it is from an edit it in. (I copied the card to a folder on my computer as a card to make). SO, this is not an original idea but a loose case of another talented artist. I had fun forming my flower and trying to bring it to life! :-)
Thank you so much for stopping by to take a peek! I always appreciate your visit!

That flower is formed beautifully, a craft I respect! tried it and have no patience for it. The elegance of black and white/pink is timeless, something only you can capture! This is so beautifully crafted and the tendrils are just the right touch! This is gorgeous, Peggy!

This is so beautiful, Peggy. Your big flower is gorgeous and I love the pink and black color scheme. I am always amazed by people who can do things on the computer to add to their fabulous cards. Right into my favs.

Oh, Peggy, your SIL will absolutely LOVE this elegant card! I love the light pink combined with the depth of the black--perfect! Your die cut choices as always are so wonderful, love them!
I'm just starting to play with floral die-cuts, and have had so much fun even though I'm definitely a beginner in every way. This is gorgeous, love that stamen!
I love the black lines on that light pink cs behind the flower, lovely! And the Happy Birthday stamp, if you ever sort out the source--do let us know--that is a beauty111
STUNNING card as always! I think you are so wise to be involved in a stamping/die club, perhaps someday something like that can happen in this area of mine (Hamilton, Burlington, Oakville, Niagra Region, etc), it is such a great idea to share what dies you have with others, and have access to more than one person can usually afford to buy--so smart!!!
The second of your cards to go into my favorites this week. Love this, Peggy!!!
Oh my Peggy......this turned out beautiful and I love that my "stamen SVG" worked for you!!! I really like that piece of paper you chose with the teeny black lines running through it. Into my favs!!!
