Here's my card:
I chose some very not like me colours for this card, hoping for some sunshine and warm days I think! I started by masking off the vertical strip and using a stencil. I then stamped the flower heads and die cut a line of crosses to link them up.
The additon of enamel dots to the flower centres and a sentiment finished off my card.
Supplies:
Stamps: SU, Blooms & Wishes
Inks: SU, peekaboo peach, calypso coral, so saffron; Memento, tuxedo black
Dies: MFT Die-namics, basic stitched lines
Stencil: TCW, mini tiny circles
Embellishments: SU, enamel dots, peekaboo peach

Love your card design, Jane! The die cut crosses are subtle, yet so pretty. Love your warm colors, too! Hugs, Cathy

ReplyDeleteLove this card, mostly def CAS. Great die to use a die to cut the crosses through the flowers. x
ReplyDeleteWonderful card, Jane! When I first saw this I thought it was pattern paper and die cuts! Amazing work! I love the little cross-stitch detail!
ReplyDeleteThis card is sooo pretty. Going to try and play along with the CAS sketch too.

I love the stencil and those embossed die crosses are such a clever idea to work in with the sketch!
ReplyDeleteI like the subtleness of the cross-stitch die cut mixed with the pretty posies.
ReplyDeleteYour card seems to have brought the warm weather to my area... the last few days we've had high temperatures around 65-70°F, which is unusual for us in February!
