Flowers

Hi and Happy Sunday,

An aunt of mine is lying in a kind of nursing home, recovering from hip surgery and I wanted to sent her a get well card.
I ended up making two cards using digital paper from pink petticoat.




On the first card I stamped a flower (from stampin'up!) on vellum with versamark, then heat embossed is with white embossing powder. 
I put some yellow ink on the back of the vellum. The die cut word says "get well soon" in Dutch.
On the second card I used a dandelion die cut, I put gold embossing powder on the leaves.

For both cards I used  your next stamp sketch # 23.

I'm entering one of these cards in the following challenges:

your next stamp: sketch 23
sweet stampin challenge: emboss it (first card)
mod squad challenge: flower as focal image (both cards can enter)
simon says stamp: wednesday challenge: die crazy (both cards have dies)

Have a lovely Sunday and thanks for stopping by.

Hugs Henriëtte.

Wonderful use of the sketch. Love the grays and yellows, and the different embellishments and dies you used.
The vellum is really effective as are the gold tips on your wild flower. Thanks so much for joining us at the Mod Squad Challenge this week.
