Hi again. I have made this card for two challenges.

The band across the middle has been made using the Martha Stewart LACE SCALLOPED HEART PUNCH. The flowers have been made using the Die D-Lites BLOOMS TWO and also the DAISY PUNCH. To complete them I have used the Poppystamps FOLIAGE & also the Die D-Lites SPRIGS. I have added butterflies that hae been heat embossed for added texture with gemstones for the bodies. The smaller Butterflies are punched using scrap patterned paper.

Lil Red Wagon Challenge #227. PUNCH IT UP.
Cute Card Thursday Challenge #331. WHAT A GEM.
I have used papers from my stash, and all edges have been defined with a gold decorative border to highlight and add definition too. The two smaller panels have been mounted on brown paper, edged again with the decorative border and to complete the look I have added brown gemstones to the corners.
The top FLORAL RING has been made using a large scalloped circle, and then the smaller flowers have been made by layering the Spellbinders BLOSSOM 3. Then I punched lots of DAISY FLOWERS and added FLOWER PEARLS for the centres to give added texture and make 3D. These were positioned around the scalloped circle, and then adhered to the top of the Easel Card.
I have also added small PUNCHED BUTTERFLIES, folded in half to make look like they are flying.
On the base it has a panel to co-ordinate onto which I have added the sentiment tablet which says
"HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY"
To complete the look I have added brown gemstones to match the top and a BROWN & WHITE POLKA DOT RIBBON BOW.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
