Wow, this is gorgeous. The background is just beautiful. I love the black feathering around the flower petals. I would have never thought of doing that.

How fantastic Christine, and such wonderful blue tones with these beautiful flowers and a great background mix of stamps and some pretty stencilling too. x

You have a wonderful way of combining different stamps and making it all come together in a beautiful card and you did it again here. I love the white flowers, black edges and blue centers. That is the exact opposite of how my mind works and this is lovely.

This is such a lovely card Christine. The blue shades are so pretty. x

Bonnie said...

These etched flowers really pop, Christine and I love the blue centers! The background is amazing too! Love those crackled leaves!

Gloriously mixed media, great design and love the texture from the leaves....A real stunner x.

Soooo pretty, Christine! Your background is a WOW with all the different stamps and products you used. Beautiful combo! Two weeks is great mail time for international! The two cards I received today took 7 days each to get here, one from Nevada and one from New Jersey. Not sure where they got hung up. Another card was mailed right here in town and took 5 days to get here. Crazy mail these days!

Oh it's beautiful!! I adore it and I'm sure your friend did too... The post to the Netherlands is usually really slow but now it's better than ours! We only get post about once a week if that since the pandemic

Another amazing card combining products and techniques. Those etched flowers are gorgeous and striking.

I find outgoing international mail is a lot quicker than incoming mail. Our Canada Post service is horrible.

Your flowers are so beautiful! And the addition of multiple layers makes the card even more eye-catching. Fantastic stamp, but its use even more brilliant and the background is simply stunning
