A big congrats to Kathy, the newest Featured Stamper! What a big, beautiful gallery she has! I chose THIS to case. I kept the colors & oval, but I used different images, an embossing folder instead of a die & turned mine horizontal.
I had the white frame already embossed & in my stash, so I die cut 3 of each size of Aster then sponged 1 of each size w/ the stonewashed ink. The centers for all flowers were made by cutting a strip of white (about 1/2″ wide) & using fringing scissors all down one side. Then I used tweezers to roll it up. The longer the strip, the bigger around it will be. Added a drop of glue to the end, removed the tweezers & fluffed a little. Then I sponged just the tips & added them to the flower centers.
I added white leaves & fronds from the other dies, then die cut the ovals. I used the denim ink to stamp the Wishing on the oval & also the rest of the greeting on a separate piece.
Congrats again, Kathy! Happy New Year! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, this is a stunning card! Wowzers, what you can do with dies and paper. You are a true artist. Love the reflection on the table.
