Handmade Flowers Thank You Card

Handmade flowers
          Hi friends ,I wanted to start the New Year with a special Thank you card for all of you who visit me and encourage me with kinds words here on the blog, with likes on face-book and even the silent visitors for just dropping in!I value each and every one of you!
Sent to me by Lisa- Thank you !
My blogger pal Lisa so generously sent me these amazing crafting goodies all the way from the USA just for being her crafty blogger friend!!I am going to be hoarding all the gorgeous stickers and trims for ever and ever and am still drooling at the huge bottle of glossy accents but I could bring myself to use the gorgeous dominoes embossing folder she sent me to emboss vellum to create the background of this Thank you card!
Thank you Card
         Stamped a Thank you and used Copper WOW embossing powder to heat emboss it and layered it on Spellbinders  die cuts .I rubbed on golden Gelatoes, sponged on some aged mahogany distress ink and sprayed on some Lindy's pearlescent spray to give the golden maroon hue to my embossed vellum background .
Handmade flowers
Most of you know I make my own flowers and love to experiment making flowers with different materials. The roses and the rosebuds are handmade using this tutorial : Easy Rose tutorial 
Handmade flowers
All the soft white daisies on this card are felt flowers made using the Cheery Lynn  sunflower die and here is the tutorial : Easy Daisy tutorial and the tiny white flowers which are perfect to add to the leafy vines are also Cheery Lynn  die cuts.
Handmade flowers Thank you card
I made a fan on the corner of the card using the Spellbinders borderabilites die cut and added a handmade pearl spray to fan- out and splay over the flowers and vines. And what is a floral card without some fluttering silver butteflies!
I hope you liked my Thank you card !
And a special crafty New Year Wish to all my crafty visitors: May you get all the crafty supplies your heart desires, excel in lots of crafty techniques and enjoy crafting to your hearts desire!!

Supplies : Dies : Cheery Lynn  butterfly , Cheery Lynn  fanciful flourish, Cheery Lynn  sunflower die , Cheery Lynn  BAF -3 embellishments, Cheery Lynn  olive branch , Cheery Lynn  Flourish Leaf strip , Spellbinders Shapeabilities Lace Hearts, Spellbinders Rose Creations , Shapeabilities Asian Accents S 5 -123,Spellbinders Borderabilities Curved Borders 2 ,Lifestyle crafts Circle, Memory Box round fence, Embossing Folder : Cuttlebug Dominoes embossing folder

    Sonia, when I saw your card I just had to take time to come over and gaze. I make my own flowers so I appreciate the beauty of each bloom in the outstanding fanned floral spray on this beautiful card. I have no idea why I have never thought of embossing vellum, and yours is so pretty. Thank you for posting this wonderful art with us today at Word Art Wednesday. Have a Happy and BLESSED 2015, Carole
    PS the butterflies are lovely as well.

    Everything is gorgeous in this project and I especially love the die-cuts. Thanks for blessing us with your artwork last week at Word Art Wednesday. There is still time to join us for our Challenge this week so, I hope you link more projects with us. Leaving you with God's Word in Hebrews 7:25 which says, "Therefore he (Jesus) is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them." God bless always!
