Flower Bouquets

Happy Friday! I hope you've got some plans for the weekend. In my part of the world there's all sorts of local festivals going on. Things are a smaller scale .. the church carnival is now a music festival and beer garden.. but it's still a great chance to see some friends that we haven't seen in a while. Mr. J. has been playing bartender and helping out with the electric at the festival.

Today I'm playing along at Daring Cardmakers where they're celebrating the bounty of the garden or your favorite space. My favorite place is my yard.. it's my sanctuary from the busy world. There are lots of flowers in bloom and I have a veggie garden too. This time of year you'll find lilies in all sorts of colors, clematis, daisies and so much more.

I thought the Pretty Pink Posh Flower Bouquets would be just perfect since they're loaded with lots of different florals.

My card starts with a distress ink background covered with a Pretty Petals Panel. Next I layered on TWO Scallop Circles, and arranged the flowers over that. To prevent the little yellow vase to have the appearance of "floating" I added a bitty strip of border like a shelf.

Don't you think that the color purple is so under used? Smiling here!   Have a great weekend and take some time to smell the flowers!
