Competition entrance

Hello Blog visitors

I attend a club each week called 'Stitch a Greeting' and last month they set us a challenge (which they are going to do each month).  We were given a flower pattern and a die which we had to use to make a card with.

This was my entry, I stitched the flower twice onto a circle and then layered it onto a spellbinders circle scollop and then onto the die which had to be included in the pattern.  I then matted these onto my spellbinders grand circle.  

I then put this onto acetate to make it look like it was floating.

 I stitched the 4 corners and placed 4 teardrop shape gems

 I made a box which I decorated with flowers and leaves.

 The verse inside the card is from 'Clarity Stamps'

Also I didn't win (there were loads of wonderful entries), I was pleased with the finished card, so as a friend of mine had a big birthday, I decided this was the card I would send her.
Hope you like it.  Bye.
