Hello friends~ Today's card features some wonderful dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs.
I started by blending on Distress Inks in Abandoned Coral, Tattered Rose and Antique Linen and then spritzing it with a solution of water with a drop of bleach.
I cut the panel using Fishtail Borders and mounted the bottom portion to an A2 sized card and the top portion using foam tape to give it a little lift.
I cut the smallest Entwined Oval out of Kraft card stock and adhered it to the top portion of the card so that it hangs slightly over the bottom.
I cut the Pair Of Leaves 1 out of olive green card stock and added a bit of color using ColorBox Dark Moss Chalk Ink.
I then cut several Garden Notes Asters out of pink card stock, adding color with Distress Inks and assembling the flowers. I added some Prills to the centers of the flowers. I love the realistic look the prills give.
Once the card was assembled I added a sentiment banner using a stamp from General Sentiments.
You can find all these dies at Elizabeth Craft Designs.
I'll be adding this card to the following challenges:
Crop Stop! ~ Distress Inks found in store
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge ~ Going Dotty
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
The Sisterhood of Crafters ~ Encouragement
Double D Challenges ~ Flowers Galore
Creative With Stamps ~ Flowers
I hope you enjoyed today's card.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Blessings~ Birgit

This is absolutely GORGEOUS Birgit! Your background is SO beautiful and I am totally in love with those flowers...they are SO realistic looking! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
I never thought to add bleach to the spritzed water.......great idea for a more dramatic effect. Your cards are always so pretty because you ink your paper and the colors are perfect every time. This is so pretty.
