ABC13XE24 flower by the gate

Photo Details

Poster: lacyquilter

This is my card for alpha challenge round 13 letters X and E. X is part of the gate, and E for echinacea. I made some larger pieces of faux wood, cut them into strips, sponged the edges with ink, and glued them back together. The nails are dots of black paint. The hardware is cut with a keyhole die.

What a creative way to use the X. I love this! The flower is so pretty and the wood grain and hinges on your gate are really well done!
