Floral Aperture

Morning All
Haven't been on blogging for a while but I was feeling a bit jaded and had very little inspiration but I think my mojo has returned in the last few days - either that or its blind  panic cause I have a demo and class in 10 days time for 35  and I haven't started my prep yet!!lol
This card was inspired by one Ruth made recently and showcased on her website here. I cut the front of a 6x6 card just under half way and then cut a strip the same size as the piece still connected to the card and then attached them together using the die cuts and flowers.
I have used a Sizzix die from the flowers, leaves and branch set and some daisies punched from different sized woodware punches. I added some pearls and an embossed border to finish. The little sentiment was made on the computer. I like this card and am going to play around more with this idea.





I am entering this into the following challenges
Crazy for Challenges - lots of flowers
Divas by Design - anything goes
A Spoonful of Sugar - white and one other colour
Papertake Weekly - anything goes
Top Tip Tuesday - Anything goes
