Stencil Cut Cards

[SylviaF]

I've arranged the leaves and made a flower for the centre of this one.
The flower is made by arraying an "unclosed" or open petal shape in circles so that you can bend the petals upwards - there were quite a files using this method a year or so back.
I have backed my flower with mirri paper so it shines through where the petals are bent up - gives a really nice effect, but the photo does not show it very well. I have put beads in the circle surrounding the flower. Done in DM - I have included the svg file.

I've used a pale pink for the base card and a mauvey blue for the insert and the flower which gives an understated look - it might have more impact done in stronger colours
