Dancing Meadows

I used a pretty new cover plate die from Simon Says Stamp, and their newest release, Shine On, to make a couple cards with it's pretty flowers and leaves...

This first one, the flowers are single flowers, and four leaf clusters.  I die cut all of them from white cardstock, and colored with a purple and a green marker.  I dotted each of the flowers with white enamel accents dots.  I also added a die cut and layered sentiment, along with some enamel dots.  I popped up the panel onto a card.  Here's a close up...

The second one, done much like the first...

This one has flowers on stems, and stand alone leaves, along with a larger flower.  Again, I colored the flowers and leaves, but chose to leave the flower white, except for it's center.  I again, gave each center of each flower a dot of enamel accent, as well as a die cut and layered sentiment.  I forgot to say, I colored the cardstock for the sentiment with the same ink as the flowers on both cards, then die cut the sentiment from the colored cardstock.  I colored white enamel dots, on this card, with the purple marker to make them purple, and then they match with the flowers and sentiment, perfectly, too!   I framed it all with a die cut and layered frame.   Here's a close up...

I hope you had a great 4th of July...I enjoyed time with my children and their families!  A bit cooler temperatures would be nice, it is SO hot, but having my daughter visiting...indoors or out, is of little matter...the time together is everything!  Oh, and SO thankful for AC!!  Please take care!

Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
