The theme on My Time To Craft this week is Floral Frenzy - to use as few or as many flowers as you wish. Well I got into a frenzy doing this card - it isn't what I intended it to be like! I stamped my image and coloured in with a Copic and a Promarker - but the Promarker (pink) bled all outside the edges, and I didn't want to waste such a large image. So I cut it out and mounted it onto the card with sticky foam pads - then thought it looked a bit flat so stamped and coloured it again and cut out the main part of the rose and decoupaged it. Anyone who knows me well knows I do NOT do decoupage! However, I am fairly pleased with how this card turned out eventually and it is now in the post to the recipients so I hope they like it! The gold corners are cut using a Cuttlebug die in my Big Shot.

Really lovely card, love the colouring of the image. It's great how 'mistakes' can give us such great effects. Anesha
This is beautiful Lesley. How clever of you to rescue the flower. It looks great decoupaged.

Beautiful card Lesley - love that stamp. I think I have those corner dies - somewhere! Well done for rescuing the image - think I'd have just given up! xxxx
