Wow! What a challenge. I love silver so I was excited to see the challenge to use silver. I had so many ideas that I wanted to put on this card. It was one of those cards that it took me awhile to get it to look like what I wanted it to. (Only 7 hrs.) Oh well I think it was worth it. I quilled the flower and added pearls and beads into the centers of the petals. I embossed aluminum foil on cardboard boxes to make 4 of the squares. Then I sewed the square panels on to the base. I made this for my coworker. I know she is going to love it.
