For my card today I have used the Sweet Roses Bouquet - It's a layering stamp and a challenge to use, but oh so worth the effort.  

 I stamped the roses in the corner of my card.  This one is a 4 1/4" x 4 3/4" card to allow for the die cut edging.  This die cut was a freebie with a magazine a couple of months ago.  Very delicate.  The sentiment from another Altenew set, was embossed with Altenew Rose Gold powder.

Just a couple more days to join our challenge for April - Anything Goes!  Hope to see your creations.   '

 I was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest by Yana Smakula. Yana is a designer for the Altenew team and is extremely talented. I used her design with some changes I used different colours. My big flower is from Peony Bouquet set and the smaller ones are from Beautiful Day set. Altenew have dies that match many of their sets and both the sets I used have them. I used the dies to cut all the flowers and leaves apart of the berries (I lost the die to match them so had to fussy cut) I used a Spellbinders die(Ironworks) to cut my medallion behind my bouquet out of silver mirror card. The sentiment is from a newer Altenew set called Sincere Greetings and has been embossed with some silver powder. 

Loving all your lovely projects. Thanks for joining us this month.
