One of the sets were the fabulous filigraphy petals. They go so well with the tree stencil but I used them without that!
Here is the first one.
It was using just one of the petal shapes which I stamped to make a flower shape in mica boss and then covered it in gilding flakes.
I then stamped the petals again but this time I cut them out and gave them a bit of shape using the bone folder. I mounted the base flower onto the topper piece of card and then added the petals. I left it to dry.
I then made the card and on the base I stamped the same petal randomly in brown ink on the brown card. I stamped a final petal and cut it out to make the stopper.
I added the flower topper to the card and added the dew drops and added the stopper once I had the topper in the right place.
The next card used a different petal and this time I wanted a black and white look.
I stamped the petals on to black card using a white ink pad in the shape you can see then cut it out as one piece.
I then cut a piece of white card and stamped a sprig at the top I placed the petals on so I could position the sentiment.
I then matted and layered it onto a DL card and then stuck the petals into place.
I finished the card off using some tiny black gems in two corners!
Well I am off to watch a bit of TV before retiring to bed. I have work tomorrow after a week off!!
Hope you can leave me a comment if you visit here.
Have a great week
Love and hugs
