Hello friends,
I hope you are all doing well. Today’s post is about the new challenge at Double D Challenges with the theme “Flowers Galore”. You can create a card or project inspired by the photo and we want to see lots of flowers! For more information about the challenge and the lovely prize visit the Double D Challenge blog. Looking forward to see your card!
I was inspired by the fence, wood and lovely flowers in the mood board. I decided on wood grain designer paper and a layered iron gate die cut as basis for my flowers. The flower arrangement is made with Prima flowers and cherry blossoms in various colors. Some leafy sprigs, paper cord and glitter are the final touches to the arrangement. I finished off with a die cut sentiment, gemstones and a little swallow.
I entered my card in the following challenges:
- Inspiration Destination Challenge #128 (ends 05/31) – Anything Goes
- Allsorts Challenge #Week 415 (ends 05/ 20) – Ring a Ring O’ Roses
- Crafting with Dragonflies Challenge #80 (ends 05/20) – Lots of Flowers and/or for Mothers Day
