Nothing but Flowers

**Please go down a post to see the WMS blog hop post**

I made two really different flowers using the same technique. I just love making these flowers. These are also for the SCS HYCCT challenges.

The first card is a really simple one as it is just the flower on a card base. Since the flower was so big and the card little (the biggest scallop circle nestie I have) it didn't really need anything else. The flower is made from vellum paper and each layer was sprayed with Glimmer Mist (Red Velvet, Golden Terracotta, Tiger Lily, Peach Delight, Iridescent Gold) and Banana Pudding Chalkboard GM. I only wish you could really see all of the glitter goodness.

The second flower card I used is what I call the Spooky flower card. The flower was a combo of cardstock and vellum paper. I use several Glimmer Mists again and I used a make your own brad for the center. Instead of using some designer paper I just punched some black cardstock and ended up loving the look of it. I embossed the card base with the brick embossing folder and lightly washed white ink over it. The second layer is made up of the circles that were punched and distressed. The third and fourth layer is the black square from and the white center that holds the flower. To add to the embellishments I added some black bling flourishs. Perfect for a non-traditional Halloween card or even for that person who isn't all about traditions in general.
