Red and White

Our challenge this week, at Glitter n Sparkle 
is to "use red and white."


I loved this simply beautiful image this week
 for this challenge, from Bugaboo 
it's called, "flower tags: tag 2"

I wanted the flower to be the focal point 
and was desperate to use my new stamps... 
we went to Canada last week and
I had the joy of visiting Hobby Lobby again...
I bought mainly: embossing folders, stamps and a few dies.
The stamp I used here is one of my HL new ones. 

I embossed the background and cut out the centre, to fit the 
flower frame on 3d foam pads, and matted the embossing on red.
I carefully placed the stamp inside the frame
 and prayed it would work first go...it did!
Hurrah!!
