Crafty Cardmaker challenge 85 - Blooming Images

Welcome to our latest challenge at crafty cardmakers, hosted by Marie (MI), who has chosen the theme 'Blooming Images'.

Marie said 'I do love my flowers and this time I would like flower images to be the main focus of the card. No people, no landscapes. Just flower images. A single rose, a poinsettia, a daisy... you get it. Can be flowers in a vase or just the flowers. Of course you can still decorate with flowers, butterflies or what you feel like, but the image is a flower of some kind, NOT a tree and NOT a person holding a flower' 

Please ensure your card has only a flower/flowers as the main focus in order to qualify for the winner or Top 5 slot. 

Sometimes you have to make a card quickly and don't have time to colour your topper - on these occasions it is very useful to have craft cds to fall back on.  This week I needed a sympathy card quickly, and this complete image from the Joanna Sheen Floral Fantasy CD was just the thing I needed.  My card has a centura pearl base, size A6, and the image was simply layered onto some textured black paper and then again onto some more centura pearl card to make sure the topper had sufficent thickness.  The only additional touches needed was some white ribbon, with a simple knot, a single strip of black paper to balance the bottom of the card and 6 small AB gems.
