Daring card makers challenge

This is for the challenge over on DCM this is what the challenge was.



"This week I dare you to use a Word as the main focal point to your card. It can be a name, a greeting or just a word that inspires you. You can use other text but only one word as a main embellishment. So dig out your dictionaries, die cutters, alphabet stamps, rubons or download a funky font and show us what you can do! The design team have come up with some fabulous creations to inspire you".



Here's my attempt (I'm still trying to get over my fear of making cards LOL)
I used a pattern paper no idea what it is , stamped the word LOVE and cut it out, cut a couple of flowers out from the PP paper layered them up with foam pads to add a bit of 3D, cut out the tiny dragon fly and bent the wings for a 3d effect, inked round the edges of the paper flowers etc in black and stuck everything down.

Looks great Crissi. I think your card making nerves should be about over if this is the sort of thing you're making!
