Vase of Flowers

Today's card is quick and easy and uses punches as well as stamps.

I have used the ornament punch to make the vase and the two-step bird punch for the foliage.  The flowers have been stamped in poppy parade using the Greenhouse Garden stamp set.  I've also put a rhinestone in the centre of each flower.

I've chosen red, but you could of course make this card in any of the beautiful colour combinations available.  Why not try it in spring colours?


SU Supplies:
Cardstock: Crumb Cake
DSP: Brights
Ink: Poppy Parade
Punches: Ornament, Two-step Bird
Other: rhinestones

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Less is More - a touch of red
Allsorts Challenge - blooming blossoms

Have a good weekend

Sally

    Has anyone else noticed that it is really hard to get a truly red red in pens or water colours? I need my old paint set. Love that card, Sally.
