Congratulations to Monika, aka Monia on being featured today. Your gallery is wonderful, and made me quite intimidated. Your gorgeous flowers on your cards almost made me afraid to try, but I did and this is the card I chose to case.
The background is a scrap - A@ size - and I stamped a Penny Black candle on it and heat embossed it with white. Then I die cut the oval and placed it over the candle, added silk flowers from Michaels, attaching them with brads and a small strip of washi tape.
The sentiment is computer generated. I think I like how it turned out. Monika, you do so well with the flowers on your cards. Thank you for sharing.
