I made another Mother's day card using my favorite color combo of purple and green. I found this die-cut frame sent to me by a thoughtful blogging friend some time ago and decided it was time to use it. I stamped and embossed the Hero Arts flower 3 times with silver embossing powder and fussy cut each of the 3 layers; popping them up on foam bits. The green leaves were also embossed in silver and fussy cut. The sentiment was done with a (r) SU! Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp and more silver embossing powder, then punched with a (r) SU! word window punch. For the final touch, I added some crystal beads to the flower center and along one side of the frame.
I'm entering this into the following challenges:
The Color Hues Challenge #39 - purple and green
the Allsorts Challenge #673 - something beginning with "B"
(blooms, beads)
I noticed things have changed here on blogger with a recent update, so apparently I can no longer copy & paste graphics for challenges. I guess I will have to stop using them in my posts. I hate when things change in this regard as it makes it difficult for me to learn all the new ways of doing things.
Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a wonderful day ahead!

Such a beautiful card Carol, I love the embossed flower and leaves, lovely colour card also. I noticed graphics not loading properly too. I wonder why that is a problem to Blogger?

Super card Carol, lovely design.
I’ve recently had a problem only being able to leave anonymous comments, which is not much use. Finally solved the problem today. I wish Blogger would just leave things alone. xx
Very pretty and the purple is subtle but still works with the green nicely. I love the framing and all the dimension from the Hero Arts flower x

Embossing the edges in silver is just beautiful. I love that scalloped frame in the matching color too.
