For Inspiration Challenge IC132 ~ Acacia ~ I was inspired by the yellow and teal sham in this
image.
Stamped two of the flower images with StazOn ink and colored them with Blending Chalks using a foam applicator. Sprayed them with clear gloss Acrylic Sealer to set the chalk and then cut them out. Top flower is raised up on dimensionals and has dots of Stickles in the center. Gently bent the flower petals and then tucked the spirals underneath.
Ink Distressed edges of sentiment layer and drew faux stitches with glaze gel pen. Punched Cambria's fun criss cross border along one edge of the sentiment.
... TFL!

I've always wondered what crafters do with blue stickles, and now I've got the answer. They just make your card along with that flower and stems. Oh, this is way too terrific. It's drop dead gorgeous!
