The flowers from Altenew’s Garden Treasures and Crown Bloom we’re stamped in Versafine. The small flowers were colored with Arteza watercolor brush pens. The large flower was stamped with Altenew’s inks and the stamen portion heat embossed with Cobalt blue embossing powder. The ovals were cut using MFT Stitched oval Dies.

I attached the flowers to the oval and centered on the card.

Found this clothing tag in my stash and decided to recycle it on this masculine card. The base was created using Altenew’s Socato stamp set. I roughed up the edges and applied distress ink to grunge it up, I sanded a photo from Tim Holtz’s photo collection and colored with Arteza watercolor bush in dark red. I used an Ideology monocle and added the small tag. The base was mounted on red cardstock and then applied to a craft base.
