This card is for 2 challenges. I've had a difficult time getting back at stamping after a long break. The cards in the gallery inspired by Belleek pottery were so inspiring I used this technique to make my card for our teaparty this week.
I brayered straw ink on the negative side of eb folder. The rolled roses were a sizzix die. The leaves were cut from the eb folder. The large round die is a Marrianne die. Tag is Stampin Up.
Although I'm bringing flowers they are neither in a cart or colourful but they are serene which I think will be appreciated.

What an entrance for your return. The flowers and leaves are lovely - and that circle is so impressive. What a great job of creating a subtly inked bg for the raised embossing. Oh, I like the outer circles, too. Thank you so much for this beauty.
