The challenge this week at Heart 2 Heart is "Coming up Roses" - and I LOVE creating cards with floral components, so this is a terrific challenge for me.
A friend of mine is about to embark on a fabulous new journey in her life - personally and professionally. I know she will be successful, simply because her work ethic is so strong and she sets goals and works toward achieving those goals. She has met so many of the goals she has set for herself already. This card was designed specifically with her in mind. The word dream on the script paper was cut so that it showed above and below the cross piece. The "She Believed" stamp is one that I have had since Convention 2013 and it fit perfectly for this occasion. The flowers and leaves are from two brand new stamp sets in the Seasonal Expressions 2 catalog and they were coloured using a blending pen with ink from our ink pads.
Join us at Heart 2 Heart and show us your favourite flowers - they don't have to be roses - for this challenge. You have the entire month of May to enter this or any of the May challenges.
