Susan is our guest hostess for this week's Teapot Tuesday challenge, which you can find HERE.
She'd told me flower collage and I was waiting to read the challenge post before deciding where to go - but when my sister sent me the most beautiful wrapping paper (around a gift), I knew what I was going to do. I'll add a photo of the wrapping paper in the challenge thread.
I spent an hour or so snipping away at the paper and amassed a collection of flowers and leaves (and I used some of it on my third acrylic pour card too). DH requested that enough be left intact for him to make an origami vase from.
I brayered a piece of white card with black acrylic (because I wanted a little more texture and feel than just using black card) and when dry, stamped it with the Crackled Paint backgrounder using Delicata gold.
Then I arranged the flowers, and stuck them down with collage medium. Some of them are popped up a bit, I used Pinflair glue because DH had been using some on a repair job on his motorbike, and there was still some left in the syringe that I wanted to use up. I added a gold frame, and then finished it off with a couple of ladybirds cut from glossy black and red glitter paper.

Another incredible card, Sabrina. A tribute to fussy-cutting and layout! Love the gold crackle in background and artsy flowers. Fully perfect for challenge subject!
