This week the theme for the challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog is Show Us Your Metal.
I created my card base and most of the die cut pieces from Reverse Confetti Cuts flowers for Mom dies and Tim Holtz Kraft Core Metallic Paper. I made some coordinating Distress Woodgrain Cardstock with Distress Spray stains in Cracked Pistachio, Salty Ocean and Tarnished Brass. I also used the stains and some tissue wrap to create my flower. I substituted the traditional flower center with one of the Hello Love Resin Embellishments to finish off my card.
Be sure to stop back and play along with us in a new challenge each Monday!
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $50 gift voucher that will go to one random challenge entry. So please join us for this week's challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. You might also be on our Friday Designer Spotlight. Good luck, I can't wait to see what you make!

Holy cow! My first thought was, "This card is amazing!" and my second thought was, "I want to grow a tree like that!!" The addition of teal to the wood grain was nothing short of SUPER GENIUS! I've never seen anyone do that and it is gorgeous! Kudos to totally thinking outside of the box on this one!
