Flowers MWT

Although joining in OWH challenges was not one of the 2013 card making goals I set, it's been in the back of my mind that I've been slacking in this department since about mid-November.

Here's a flower card for the Midweek Throwdown.  I used an old Cuttlebug die for the flowers, inspired by several cards featuring flower dies I've seen lately.


Rachel G. set a goal to include more details/embellishments on her cards.  I thought that was an awesome goal and it caused me to add the gems to the sentiment panel and Glossy Accents to the flower centers.  Thanks, Rachel, for the inspiration!

  1. Aw, thanks Kathryn! I already forgot I said that, lol. But man it really does make a difference, this is a gorgeous card. Hopefully you'll let me know if you see me slacking. Great accent dots BTW! And I really like that flower bunch. TFS!

  2. That is a fabulous goal! I may borrow that one for a bit too... at least to get my stash more manageable! :) Love the card, and that Unity sentiment is perfect!

  3. These flowers are beautiful, and I love the dsp & sentiment panel. You mentioned how similar our cards were, and oddly enough, I thought my card resembled Jan's design too! LOL Mine was made last night before the challenge was posted, so me thinks we're all on the same wave length :)
