Hello. I have another card to share following the list of items from Festive Friday:

Looking at the list of items, I started with the golf foiled background panel. This was created using a hot foil plate from Spellbinders called ‘Dazzling Diamonds’.

The flowers were created using a layering die set from Honey Bee Stamps ‘Lovely Layers: Coneflower‘, with the layers of the flower die cut from Concord & 9th card stock – and including the ‘Marmalade‘ orange card stock which was retired a year or so ago. I have a stash of this colour as it is a gorgeous orange, and was sorry to see it go from their product line.

From darkest to lightest, I used ‘Spiced Cider‘, ‘Marmalade‘, ‘Clementine‘ and then ‘Creamsicle‘. The leaves were die cut from ‘Grasshopper‘. The centre of the flowers were a back layer of black, with a yellow upper layer from my stash of bits.

To include a hexagon, I die cut two of the Pinkfresh Studio ‘Nested hexagons: Double Stitched‘ – you can part of the two hexagons under the flowers.

The gold diamond panel was adhered to a white card base, the two hexagons adhered flat also – there are lots of layers to the flowers, therefore enough dimension.

I applied 3D foam to the flower heads and placed them onto the hexagons, then added two of the leaves for each flower – also with 3D foam.

The final steps were to add some black gems, then the foiled sentiment.

I shall be entering the following challenges:
