The Flower Challenge #89 -- Make a Square Card

 

This month's challenge theme at The Flower Challenge is to make a SQUARE card.

 

 Here's my little square number.

 

I  just received my Greetery order of BotaniCuts Lilacs. I thought they'd be a pain to assemble

but I watched Betsy create hers about a dozen times and I was sold on the set.

 

Betsy used daubers to color her lilacs but I took the lazy route and smooshed whatever

purple inks I had and picked up the colors on watercolor card stock, then cut them out.

The leaves were ink blended on white die cuts and I used the residual ink to color the

tops of the clusters. 

I added a frame to a 4.25" card base and sponged in a blue background. I spattered water

and blue ink then added the blooms and leaves when the panel was dry. The sentiment

is from Honeybee Stamps Be Still stamp and die set. Sequins finished off the card.

All in all it was fast and easy to assemble the lilacs and I'd like to try and make some

 white ones that Betsy shared. But that's for another day. 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
