Unstampbelles Challenge #112: Seasons and Seasonal TWIST: use handmade flower(s)

 Hi Peeps....

I quickly made this card this afternoon to celebrate mid-winter.....

It is for the Unstampabelle's Challenge #112

Seasons and Seasonal TWIST: use handmade flower(s)

My handmade flower is made from gold card and green card mixed together

The background is the beautiful new papers from Stampin' Up

Expressions in Ink

I used a rub-on for the sentiment

A quick and easy card for the challenge.

Remember, no stamps can  be used in this challenge!

You have a week left to enter!

Unstampabelle's has a new June challenge

 The June challenge at Unstampabelles is 

#112: Seasons and Seasonal 

with the TWIST: use handmade flower(s)        

I had to make a card for a 90 yo who was throwing herself a party today

It was a good party too!

I used the theme at Unstampabelle's as it was both

Seasonal= there are a lot of birthday's this year in our family ending in 0

and it is winter!

Plus I made some flowers using a die I have had for over 10 years and have 

only used at the most once before!

It is raining outside so all photo's were taken inside, the first one 

on the work desk which is incredibly messy!

I taking the second on the stairs, a small black and white paw sneeked into the shot 

so I had to do it again....

Before I put it into the envelope I added a small sprig of gold leaves to the leaf pile

but of course I didn't photograph it.....

I was reading about creating a winter garden the other day and it appears that 

all the foliage is various shades of green and gold and sometimes with an occasional red flower....

mine is without that!

It has a soft glitzy gold shimmer about it

What are you going to create?
