Cheery Lynn Designs Beautiful Borders challenge
I know many people in the States are wishing for Spring (not me, I love snow) But here is a Spring themed card I did for this week's Cheery Lynn Designs Beautiful Borders challenge. I began with Japanese Lace Pattern frame, but instead of die cutting it, I embossed the detail as a background for my flowers. I arranged my Olive Branches and then added flowers created with the new Miniature Rose die. The white border is the fabulous Ribbon Eyelet Border with Piercings. I threaded a piece of yellow card stock through the border but first I added textured with my Rectangle Stitcher Plate. I think it makes it look like woven ribbon. The finishing touch was adding the green Anastasia Border across the bottom. It is such an elegant border. I computer generated the saying. Finished size is 6" square.

Oh no, Sandy! Now I have to buy more dies. Your flower tutorial is wonderful and your card is gorgeous! I haven't tried any of the rolled flower dies but now I'm going to have to. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration.
I love this card, Sandy! I just may have to get that miniature rose die and the Olive Branches. Beautifully done!
