Mixed media card

I had an extra stamped and die cut flower sitting on my desk after making the Tri-Fold Window Card the other day, and figured that I would use it as a topper on a mixed media background that I was making. I have been wanting to make a background using a stencil, some ink and glimmer paste for a while, and felt that mixing those would make a perfect background for a flower like the one I had left over from that other project. I started by coloring the flower using watercolor brush pens, before chosing the color for the background. Since we have a "green" color challenge going in our FB group, I decided to go with a green background. I chose a stencil that I liked, and used some Ranger Dye Ins to fill in parts of the cardfront through the stencil. I then went over some of the inked up parts with Nuvo Glimmer Paste, to create some extra dimension to parts of the cardfront. Holding the flower approximately where I wanted it to go, I thought the end result would be a bit too simple, so I decided to stamp some text in a different shade of green underneath where the flower would be placed. I then added some foam tape to the back of the flower before adding it to the cardfront. The card was finished off with some half-parls in two different shades of green. A very simple, yet in my opinion, a great looking card.
