Oh my gosh this is awesome!! So wonderful how the the pansy turned out. Love the background with the "words" then layered with the gelato and pressed flower. You really stepped into another realm! Nice going!
I think it came out beautifully!! Love the color combo and the design elements you added. I didn't realize what had happened until I read your notes. Great idea and terrific card!
I saw a technique yesterday morning that I thought I would like to try so I went out into the garden to gather a few flower blossoms to pound... it did not go well, I am too wild and killed all the flowers and ended up with wet paper! There was an alternative method of pressing the flowers, you remember pressing with books and such? Well this one was to use a die cutting machine to "press" the color out of your flower.....that is what I did with the Pansy. I used some purple ink along the side of the image but it did not work as I had hoped so creatively covered it with purple gelato and water then added the silk ribbon that matched!
