This is my card for yesterdays Inspiration Challenge which was the flower package. I have been very behind in my challenges so it felt really good to be able to do this one! I plan on giving this to friends who just moved into a new home. I do not have the Kraft paper so I subsituted it with Sahara Sand which I lightly stamped with Linen background and River Rock Ink to give it texture. I also stamped my Whisper White with Linen and River Rock so that it was not just a starck white and then stamped the branches and flowers. The flowers were stamped in both Ruby Red and Pumpkin Pie Ink to get that burnt orange. I then used my brand new tiny silver beads from SU and glued them to the center of the flowers. I love the beads but boy what a MESS, they were all over my floor- oh well no body ever said that card making was a clean activity! I also used my new oval punch- yeah! Oh also I finally learned how to turn the flash on and off on my camera so now its not making my pics too bright, it only took me a year to figure out! TFL!
