I hope your week is going well! Today I have something different to show you. Beverly at Terryfic Times gave me this green die cut that she had cut at her store, and asked me to see what I could do with it. I ended up bending the cut circles backwards and stitching through each one to "tack" them down, adding a bead to each space. I paired it with these two shades of blue/aqua card stock from my stash, and decided that my Layers of Color "Flowering Gemstones" would look good with this layout. I stamped with Memento and colored with Copics, and cut out. I pierced my corner treatments with my Ornare template which I also got at from Beverly, adding the small cut flowers to the piercing. I added gold microbeads to the centers of all the flowers. Different, right? It was fun and actually went quite quickly!
I am linking this card to the following challenges:
Sew many Cards - Anything Goes
One Stitch at a Time - FlowersDaring Card Makers - Die Cuts
Thought for today: Is. 40:26 "Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these things..."
I hope the rest of your week is filled with blessings, and that you have time to see them! Thanks for stopping!

Another beautiful card, Grace.
Love your treatment of the diecut, as I would have simply tucked the cut-out under the solid piece behind it. Doing it your way gives it a really light look, and the addition of the beads is just lovely.
Blessings
