This week's Stampin B challenge was to make a botanical card, could be anything green, or growing things, flowers, plants. I did a sympathy card and used my Martha Stewart Camellia stamp set and embossed the flower and sentiment with white embossing powder. Sentiment is Stampendous. I framed it with my Fiskars 'Read Between the Vines' punch that I really love. Tied a ribbon and added a flower at the top.
Hope you'll join us at the StampinB this week.

Oooh, love that border punch you used to frame the flower. Love the white embossing on the kraft - always a wonderful change from a coloured image. Now I have to try to resist getting this border punch you enabler you!!

Nicely done, Benzi!! This StampinB challenge is perfect for a sympathy card. Unfortunately, I now have two to make. I'm going to try to work on them tomorrow. Your card is very inspiring. I really like how you used the vine punch to frame that beautifully embossed camellia. Wonderful!
