Julia's challenge today was to use odd numbers on our cards. I can't find the pause button for my busy life these few weeks, so I took my lead from the CCEE inspiration challenge this week, and chose this White Flower for my choice of inspiration.
The 5 1/2" square base is Indian cotton paper. I sponged the edges with pale pistachio ink and then went over them with a clear Sakura Stardust pen for definition. The Doodle This flower was stamped on watercolour paper with Daffodil, embossed and cut out. I used the Pistachio ink for the centre, and a little bit of clear Stardust. Curled the petals, used two dimensionals underneath and matted onto some Snowflake Fantasy Fibre.
I'm getting a stinking headache, so this photo is as good as it gets tonight.
Half of me wants to add something into the corners, but I don't have anything dainty and delicate enough.

Amazing, Sabrina! Sometimes less is more, as is the case with this stunning card! It looks like fibers on the CS- don't know how you did that, unless the CS comes that way- if so, WOW! I would love to know where to get some! Your card is gorgeous, just love everything about it!
Hope your headache gets better soon- I know what that's like!
