Flowers galore

Finally, a card made for a challenge! It's the Inspirational Card Sketches I went with this time. This is one of those cards that morphed into something completely different along the way... It's weird when that happens... I didn't imagine this card anything like what it is now! *lol* The reason for all the flowers was that I had planned to use a sentiment stamp aboute friends and flowers - but somehow it just didn't fit the layout! And I accidently picked up the wrong sized circle nesties, I should have gone one size bigger. But at least I managed to keep my hands off the Liquid Pearl before it dried this time. ;)

The Core'dinations Whitewash cardstock was embossed with the Swiss Dots folder and sanded to reveal the blue core colour, that also is visible along the teared edge. The circles have been cut from Core'dinations Vintage and sanded along the edges to reveal the lighter core colours. I just love how the embossed edge is emphasized with the sanding!
