Magic Flowers with Embedded Brushos

I made another card using Alexandra Renke dies. I thought the silhouette dies were perfect for the embedded Brushos background I made last month. I used the second pull for this card and used the first pull for today's card.


I cut a rectangular panel out of the embedded Brushos background piece, and layered it over a black panel of almost the same size. The magic flowers were die cut and pasted on the panel. The sentiment was stamped in black. I wanted to stamp a vertical sentiment, so I used a Japanese stamp. It says "Arigato", meaning "Thank you".

Thanks for stopping by!


Stamp: Arigato (Kodomo no Kao)
Paper: Watercolor Paper (Arches Hot Press - 140 lb), Whisper White, Basic Black (Stampin' Up!)

Accessories:
Dies (Magic Flower - Alexandra Renke), Embossing Folder (Seaside - Stampin' Up!), Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Pen (Glitter Gloss)
