I cut two Fleur de Lis shapes , trimming down one of them, leaving just the points. Not a lot of other explanation needed for this card. I wasn't too familiar with the dianthus, so I had to google it. Don't you just love Google? You can find ANYTHING!!! Coloring was done with Copic markers; sponging done with Palette Raw Sienna; and the background piece was embossed using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder. The cardstock is from Mark’s Finest Papers Premium Paper Craft Pack – Spring Has Sprung.
I don't have any salt & pepper shakers that even look like that flower, but I thought my hobnail milkglass ones coordinated with the Swiss Dots embossing folder I used.
