Welcome
It has been longer than I would have liked between postings, but life has thrown me a few curved balls of late, and to be honest, I have not done very much of anything over the past week.
This was made for an August birthday. I was inspired by this video by Natasha Foote.

I started by masking off a panel, and using a this stencil by The Crafters Workshop,
I stenciled white texture paste to form a feature panel directly on the base.

I then diecut and coloured a floral die from S/B, from the in'spire range called Flower Power 1
I cannot find it on the site, and as I got it on 'special' recently, I suspect it may be discontinued.

The sentiment (a Magazine Freebie) was silver embossed, and a few clear gems added, and the card front was finished.

The inside panel was finished with some floral washi tape, and the same tape was used on the envelope.

It's gorgeous Maxine. Such a pretty design and love the embossing! I'm sorry to hear you've not gotten much crafting time. Hope things slow down a bit.
Thanks so much for sharing at Allsorts challenge!
Lovely floral design, Maxine. The white stenciled panel adds such great texture. Take Care!
Praying Maxine, beautiful card. Neet noticed you were MIA too. Shaz.xx
A very pretty card Maxine. I think the little gems just give it something extra.
Hope you are feeling much better this week and able to cope with things a bit better. Hugz, Mxx
I absolutely LOVE this card. So well done.
A gorgeous floral theme card Maxine - the background you have used reminds me of lace. I hope life stops throwing you curve balls & you get more creative time Maxine - it seems to be the first thing that we let go off when other "life things" happen. Take care xx
Hi Maxine, I hope you are beginning to feel better, love the texture paste and the stencil behind your inked flower, I often buy 'specials' too. Love the stitched flower card below too, I bought a Christmas set from one of the papercraft shows many years ago, I wonder where the patterns are now... Have a wonderful week... Megan
I really like that texturized background for the pretty flower. Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful card with us at Word Art Wednesday. I hope you're having a blessed and wonderful week, my friend. God bless you.

Wow! wow! WOW!!! I love that flower. It's so pretty and fun. You've done an amazing job with this card, Maxine!
This is amazing design and stunning colours, very cleverly done x
Such a pretty card Maxine, I do like the touch of pink on the edge of the flower which looks lovely against that embossed background.
Blessings, Neet xx
