This mix and match wildflowers set of dies from Frantic Stamper has a lovely selection of flower heads and leaves. If you are looking for a fast card, die cut the whole set from white or off-white cardstock, and simply colour each head with chalks or Distress Inks or watercolour pencils. In the sample below, the flowers and stems have all been coloured with chalks. I love the texture of this brick-wall embossing folder from Sizzix. The actual panel was a soft grey that has been distressed with Fired Brick Distress Ink. The salutation is from Impression Obsession and it is nice sentiment especially if you know if someone is not going to get better or get well.
In the picture I have added a set of the stem dies. Note that we did not used these in the card, the flowers have only been clustered. Would love to hear from you via a comment on the blog. We will randomly select one name from all who have commented to win the tape runner shown in the picture. Please comment before next Tuesday to be considered for the draw.

I like that card - especially the sentiment - not everyone gets well...
Love that embossing folder too! I forget about sponging - I usually just choose coloured cardstock, but it doesn't look as real as your card does.
I just love how you show new products and display samples of how they can be used! So inspiring!
A beautiful way of using these flowers....would be nice in a 'window' affect too.
