Clean And Simple Challenge #27

This is my card for today's Clean And Simple Challenge to use Bling:http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...d.php?t=452882

I knew this new release would be perfect; ASTER-SEPTEMBER FLOWER OF THE MONTH from CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS:http://www.newcleardollarstamps.com/servlet/StoreFront

I was inspired by this card by Faith (markie's mom): http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1440976

WHAT I DID: I stamped the flowers twice, once in the circle and once on another piece of white CS. I cut out only the flower tops and cut some of the petals to the center and pulled them forward for dimension. I popped them up with dimensionals and placed the gems in the center for my bling. The blue gem stickers were a great find at Big Lots for $2. This is my first time using them. I love how they look here.

Thank you for Visiting me today!
