Floral Silhouette


After a busy week, I wanted to create something simple like a one layer card.  What was I thinking?  One layer is such a challenge for me and probably took twice as long to make - why is that?!   But it was great 'loose myself' time and that's all that matters :)

 

 For my card, I started with a color wash background with distressed inks.  I stamped these pretty Hero Arts (Real Flowers set) flowers to create a silhouette look and then inlaid the Beautiful die (STAMPlorations) cut from gold cardstock.

Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration:
