Totally Cased !!

Welcome to Wednesday !!

Since the first time I saw these flowers on one of Michelle`s cards (from Stampers Dream) I just couldn`t wait to have a go. I absolutely love them. I don`t usually case many cards completely but this one is 100% cased. The original card can be seen here. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbdViKsqM3qgp6cMv8dTDH_eILgFhFSTwrqwRyIACk1l-BGhtyHDd6Z6uqARBAZtPm-hJDQUF5a9YqZZf5jhxrEkuNxjKCTYVKrQUyASoxA-L4eqeTIz5jTRpfSxduGfWc0XTQcaVIhFo/s1600-h/Friend.jpg
The main image is from Crafty Secrects, Clear Art Stamps - Serenity Prayer and is stamped onto Curious Metallics Ice Gold card stock with Chocolate Chip craft ink and embossed with clear detail embossing powder.
I used my Labels 4 nestabilities to cut it out and mat. The designer paper is a retired Stampin Up one. The card stock used is Chocolate Chip, Pretty in Pink and Purely Pomegranite.
The flowers and greenery are made using Martha Stewart punches. Here is close up of the flowers.
Thanks to Michelle for the inspiration for the card.

Thanks for visiting my blog and I hope you have a great day. Please feel free to leave a comment.
