The Dream Factory Challenge #138 - Magnolia - Guest Designer - Happy Mother's Day Cosmos

Hello,

I'm thrilled and honoured to be the Guest Designer for The Dream Factory Challenge #138, where the theme/movie for April is Magnolia. Essentially, this means a month focused on flowers and/or Mother's Day

The Dream Factory team invite you to create any kind of handmade project:  card, art journal page, ATC, bookmark, mini album, canvas or 3D project.. So many choices, right!



For this challenge, I selected one of my favourite BetterPress plates - Cosmos Backdrop - foiled in gold and inked with distress inks. Although the design, overall, is simple, I love the impact it has with the varying sizes of flowers and leaves. The sentiment - adhered to vellum - is also from Spellbinders.


Please visit The Dream Factory Challenge blog to see in the incredible inspiration from the Design Team, then join us in the gallery with your own flowers/Mother's Day project.

Thank you for dropping by!

I can well imagine how beautiful this card must be in reality!!! The gold foiling makes it look so classy and the delicate sentiment on the vellum goes so well with it!!! I love cosmos and try to have some in my garden every year. Thank you so much Carol, for beeing our wonderful Guest Designer for this month's Dream Factory challenge. Looking forward to see more of your beautiful creations!!! Hugs, Rosi
