More Garden Chic

Here is another card that I've made for Creative Expressions using the Eco Green Garden Chic stamp set.

 

The ink I've used is tumbled glass and mustard seed Distress Ink.
I used a Crafters Workshop mini tile texture mask  for the background. All the stamped images have been matted onto black card. I added bakers twine.The flower was made with a wonderful gadget called a flower loom that was a free gift in the Simply Homemade Magazine No 12. Looking at it I wished I'd used a button in the centre of the flower instead of the large gem.

    Those colours work really well together, Hazel - I wouldn't have dreamed of using that combo. I'm saving that stamp set for the next KCUK challenge, I think - unless I go rash and get it out today before I go shopping. Lovely to see more done with it x

    This is beautiful Hazel. I love the background and those colours are beautiful. Your flower is stunning - I also have that flower loom but haven't used it yet. You've definitely inspired me to dig it out!

    Love the colours and the twine - it looks amazing. I don't have a flower loom, and until today I didn't know such a thing existed, but now I think I need one!!! You are a bad influence!!!
