| Parchment Flowers |
Dear friends sharing a simple card with silvery embossed parchment flowers. Cut a beautiful glitter textured DCWV pattern paper into 2 panels and used a Martha Stewart
beaded ruffle border punch on the adjoining areas and layered it atop ivory card stock.

The flowers were made by stamping and heat embossing with silver embossing powder on Parchment paper and later die cut with my favorite Heartfelt creations Sun kissed fleur die.The cute mottled pink center of my handmade flower is a thermocol ball!

Draw veins randomly on your leaves- dont stress out about being perfect- remember nature abounds in imperfections!

Looks good now itself but if you want to have more fun add a speckling of white dots using your favorite white ink. I didnt have any good white gel pen so used a
correction pen!

Either emboss your leaves using embossing tools and a mousepad/ embossing pad or for a quicker option simply pinch the leaves using your fingers!
