The one on the left is the inspirational card - the one on the right I made going through the techniques with th ladies.
I used distress oxides to create the background - using three on a sheet, spritzing with water and smooshing my card through. Next I added more of single colours and built up layers until I was happy. Next I stamped the two stamps in the corners and added the white highlights. I repeated this process on a piece of A4 card and stamped and fussy cut lots of flowers and leaves before adding them to the card in the form of a wreath - that was after I had added the friendship stamped onto white card.
I think the ladies enjoyed the process even if they didn't finish what they were doing!!!
Hope you have a great day!

I absolutely love these Rachel. The sentiment looks fantastic and the wreath of flowers looks lovely on that background. I'm loving the oxides too and bought four more last week. Having seen your cards I know that I need to build up my background colours more. Barbxx
