You're So Special

Hello

Have been unwell for over a week now and trying to get back into creating. Was disappointed to miss a few challenge deadlines but oh well, there'll always be more :). Who would have thought it would be so hard to find motivation again! There has been a few dismal failures in the bin that's for sure.
I decided to run with something similar to my previous card but in another colour combination as I really love these flowers from Simon Says Stamp. However the finished card is definitely not the direction I was heading when I started out lol! So I decided that any card was better than no card!

I stamped the background with 2 of the flowers from SSS Friendly Flowers in Hero Arts Shadow Inks & used some leaves from WPlus9 Pretty Peonies set. I die cut a panel from the centre of the stamped background with MFT Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle Stax. Then I stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat embossed with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder. The centre panel was then mounted onto silver card stock and mounted back into the frame of the panel with foam tape. Some detail was added to the middle of some of the flowers just on the centre panel using Star Dust Stickles. A little hard to see in the photo but the close up gives you a better idea.

I am entering this into Virginia's View Challenge # 16 - 100% Stamped
