Today's CAS challenge is to use scallops which I used as a bg for my flowering vine - our back fence is covered with clematis vine and by May it will be a profusion of pink blossoms, which is what inspired my card today. I stitched double rows of scallops using MFT's Jumbo Scallops Die-namic for a bg panel and then used their Fancy Flourish to make the greenery. The leaves are snipped from die-cuts using Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish die.
I had free time this morning as it's a holiday here today and tomorrow after a busy and wonderful Easter day yesterday and just took my time arranging the flowers, tendrils, and leaves on the vine.
This is also for the technique challenge, to adhere die-cuts for the faux dry embossed look.

Amazing...simply amazing. I LOVE all those flowers you punched and place. This card is a real eyecatcher and it is obvious this card took more than a few minutes to make. It is really a work of art!

OH MY! This card just wants to invite you into the garden. It really does look like a cascade of flowers on a trellis. Very, very pretty!!
