Mixed Media Card Challenge #10 - Flowers

This is my second post for the day, Please click HERE for CASEplorations #3


Time for another mixed media delight with fun challenge at The Mixed Media Card Challenge #10 - Flowers. You can also join in the fun irrespective of your style!! Read about mixed media definition HERE and u will know what I am talking about.  So let's see what our challenge is,


FLOWERS with an optional element of Basket.... This is what I created.
To make this card, I took a water color card stock. I then heat embossed the first daisy, masked and embossed the mason jar and the other offset daisy. I then water colored these with the base in green and blue to give the illusion of sky and land. The leaves in the jar were drawn straight from the brush. Once the panel dried, I stamped the sentiment. Added a gingham patterned paper on the card base and popped up the water colored panel with some foam dots to finish my card. I am sharing this at AAA cards #36 - Easter colors, Sentimental Sunday's #252 - Springtime Flowers, Just us Girls #286 - Photo Inspiration (I was inspired by the mason jars and flower vase)
 
There is a lot more incredible inspiration by a versatile and uber talented team :) Please head over to our challenge blog to check out the details of the challenge and some more inspiration.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment :)
