I'm SO thrilled to be a CAS guest designer this week! Our theme is Mother's Day or May Flowers. We've already had Mother's Day here in the UK (in March) so I made a blank card for my first offering.
My card is also inspired by a piece of artwork I saw in the shop used for Saturday's Inspiration Challenge here. I wanted the flower to be the only focal point on the card so the design is extremely simple, lol!
The flower is stamped and clear embossed onto Rich Razzleberry card which my Big Sis sent me (Divine Secret Siblings), then I used some craft wire and pliers to form the outer petals. I then added the pearls. I mounted it onto ivory card.
Thank you for popping in to look!

It is such a pleasure to view your cards, Sally/Britzi. The use of the craft wire and pliers made such wonderful petals. That flower with all the pearls is just outstanding!!!
