Whoa, I didn't realize how blurry my first photo was, hope this is better.
I've been making Gelato backgrounds and then removing some of the color with a stencil and baby wipe. This is one of them. The Gelatos are translucent.
I could only think of one stamp of a seed (maple leaf) so I used seed beads for the flower centers. The stamp set is probably one of the first clear sets I ever bought. I love the wonky flowers. I am no gardener, things come to my house to die, usually, except I am good at succulents and orchids.

I like the bead centers of your flowers. No plants can live at my house. I gave up a long time ago. My DH has the green thumb outside though. Lovely work with the stencil and gelatos. I should get mine out.

OH you're so funny about the plants...I used to say that about my houseplants but I've learned what to do and now I have a lot. I really like how you did the gelatos bg....need to try that. Great designs on your hexagons and the seed beads are perfect. Enjoyed talking to you Jean Bean ;)

What s beautiful background, Jean. Even though the copper flowers are beautiful, it was the background that first caught my eye. Nice use of the sketch, too.

Beautiful card and nice job combining the challenges. Marvelous bg and copper embossed flowers. The seed beads are pretty centers and add a nice texture. Thanks for playing in my challenge.
