Summer Wreath



I made  this  card  for  a lovely  and  very  sprightly  lady  who  will be  100 years old  next  week  .  She loves  flowers  and  I thought  these  were  appropriate  for a birthday at  this  time  of year  .  A  very  happy  Birthday  Jean  !

I began  by  dry  embossing  cream paper  with a daisy  embossing  folder  .  I  cut  a  ring using  cricut  to  use  as  a base  for  the  wreath  ,
I  cut  the   cornflowers  and  poppy  petals  using punches  (Tonic)  and  the  daisies  with  a  Spellbinders  aster  die  .They  were  all  cut  from  white  card  and  coloured  with  Promarkers
The leaves include  Spellbinders  ferns die  and  a  variety  of punches  ,The centres of the flowers  are  made  with  Liquid  pearls  and  in  the  case of  the  daisies  a piece of  card  candi  covered  with  yellow  flocking  powder  .
A gingham bow  and  a  sentiment printed  on  Safmat  completes the  card  .

I  would like  to  enter this  card into  the  following  challenge  ----
