This card was made for 2 challenges. The Perfect Sentiments Challenge
PSC38 is "Here Comes the Sun", - to include a sunny sentiment on the front of your card. The 2nd challenge is the CAS-ual Fridays
CFC59 "Round & Round" - or use 2 circles on your CAS card. It may be a stretch, but the
Delicate Dahlia die I recently won from Simon Says Stamp is pretty much a circle, and the yellow brad in the center is round, so that's a circle too, right? :) I know, I'm probably pushing the buttons on this one :)
The die was cut from a piece of silver heat-embossed card stock, and I swapped out tiny pieces of different colors of card stock into the spaces for a more colorful design. The leaves were done with a crimper and hand-cut, while the sentiment was a digital from
SNSS that I've had printed for ages. I hand-cut the banner underneath it to make it stand out on the white background.
Wishing you all a sunshiny day too! Thanks so much for stopping by!

That flower looks fab. In the photo, it looks like enamel. It must have taken ages to fit the jisaw together so well. Well done for your patience!

Oh, wow! Carol, I love this gorgeous flower. I'm thinking that took a bit of time to do all those pretty, colorful pieces of cardstock in the flower...but so worth it.You're being creative again. :-)
what a great flower thanks for joining us at the perfect sentiment.
Great flower--I love how you created a mosaic look.
Wow a lot of tedious work on this one Carol but well worth it. I like how your made the black banner for your sentiment. That really helps to bring it to the fore front. Your color choices for your flower are all so beautiful. And I don't think you pushed it on this one, you have two circles that all you needed. Enjoy your night. Just got home from work.
Like the dimensional look of the flower & leaves. Pretty colors.
Thanks for playing with us @ the Perfect Sentiment.
