Measurements: Green panel before border 3” x 4 ¼”, sentiment strip is ¾” wide and the length of the panel not the cards outer edge, the flower is just a bit over 3 x 2 ¾”. Hope that helps!
-The Basic Grey paper got a little sponging on the edge to match it up with the other two edges. It was a 6 x 6 page to start with. I used a coarse sponge.
-The green panel is polished stone with the CHF Weave backgrounder embossed with clear powder – great texture!
-The flower image is colored with artist brush and re inkers with a blend of colors.
-I was not about to try and cut out the fern leaves with the flower image, so I had some die cut corner lying in my ‘I’ll use these someday’ pile and they worked!
-Corner features are from the EK Success Iron Eagle punch – it’s the left over scrap.
Jen70 will be proud of me for using some scraps again for this card but just the flower so not enough to call it a challenge card.
I finally got KarenÂ’s IC111 done too. For the IC I played off similar colors, the cosmos flower and the blocked shape.

Oh, this is so lovely. Love that big flower and the colors. Sponging is terrific.

Enjoy waiting up to see what you have in store and see your sample--what a gorgeous flower--just terrific and laughed when I saw the CB pieces cuz I've got a little pile of those too--like that PS bg with the embossed weave--great colors!
