Bontanical Floral

Well time to keep busy and keep my mind off sadder things.............Here is a card I made yesterday and finished this morning, must admit, I love how it turned out. Glad I took the picture when I did, it is pouring out there now!!!!
Items used:





Spellbinders Rose Creations and Parisian Accents Die

Inka-Gold #908 Violet

I stamped the word background then stamped HCPC3409. Using Stampin Up markers colored it in. Then on some green glittered paper, stamped the leaves and cut those out. Used my ZipDry glue and attached those. Then I made 5 flowers and attached those. Then I cut 3 of the tags out using Parisian Accents, cut those in half and attached to the main part of the card. Attached to the card base and it's finished. Like I said I'm real pleased with this one so hope you like it too.

Thanks everyone for all your prayers, kind words and thoughts. It is hard and I ma praying and trying not to think about it. I wake up at night and all I can see is him covered with those yellow jackets. Some of you thought it was honey bees but not, I would of had those moved but not wasps. I'm glad they are dead!!! Okay, that's it for now, it's pouring rain, wind blowing like crazy, a river running down our road, so maybe yall will get some rain too. That is if ya need it. Until then, God Bless and hug your pets!!!

You take care of yourself. I can't even imagine having seen such a horrific thing. Poor little guy.
