Theme Thursday - Flowers




We are in the season of beautiful gardens filled with colourful flowers. Everything looks so lush and alive. I don't know about you but I love to add pressed flowers to my artwork. I sometimes use my Microfleur to dry them but often purchase from a great Canadian online business called Bloomin' Delights.
These artist trading cards were created for a personal trade with the theme "Flowers", the same theme as this week's Theme Thursday challenge.

A beautiful group of cards, Heather...love that you use dried flowers on them...I am inspired. I should use some that I have. It is the 'extra' touch that we oftimes don't think about.
