Dandelions

Today's card features a couple of recent purchases from a lovely little Aladdin's Cave of a craft shop...that unintentionally 'match'. The main panel is a Creative Expressions stamp called 'Dandelions Mini Striplet' (and was in the 'last chance' bargain bin)...I heat embossed it using 'Gold Metallic Sparkle' embossing glitter from WOW on to a snippet of kraft card, then trimmed it down. I used stamps from the Woodware 'Dotty Flowers' set to make a 'matching' background...stamping just the flower heads on to my kraft card blank using Versamark Ink, then heat embossing them using clear embossing powder. I couldn't decide where to put a sentiment...so didn't bother!
