Wild weather so the only thing to do is stay in and craft!
Today's Card.....
I had some flowers left over after my play day with this previous card.
These where stamped, fussy cut and watercoloured.
I have stencilled with paste and heat foiling and also with grey inks.
I splattered with silver and found it hard to photograph,
as the splats looked horrendous! ....... Although Pretty in real life.
Finishing off with the sentiment and heat embossing
the edges of the card with silver.
I also made a box as it was for a special Anniversary.
Please stay safe and warm out there....
The strength and the sound of the winds can be quite terrifying.......

OMG !!! This card is stunning and the look of these wild rose flowers is so naturalistic !! A true mastery of watercolors, Mac. I cannot get enough of this masterpiece. I love this card and the box is a preview of what can be found inside. A stunning heel card.
Mac, do you remember the name of the stamps you used to create these beautiful flowers?
hugs,

You have such a unique style Mac and again the result is stunning, colours, texture all that appeals to me. Thanks so much for sharing and joining us again at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.

Those silver splats do not look horrendous at all! and the shine is clear in the pictures, honestly you set yourself to such a high standard! My one and only attempt at heat foiling was horrendous but you might have tempted me to try again with this beautiful stencilling. Mrs Mabel you have done it again and produced an outstanding piece of work, thank you for sharing this with us at We Love Stamping xoxo
Wow! What a pretty card. Those flowers are luscious!
This gorgeous creation has blown me away. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely creation with us at We Love Stamping.

We've got the winds going here too Mac...Michele and I both thought our roofs were going to blow off last night! Ahhhhh, the joys of Winter! Still windy today too, but the sun is out and shining on the snow, so as long as I stay inside and craft like you, I'm good! (it's only 10 degrees out!) But anyway, back to your card...it's absolutely GORGEOUS Mac and definitely deserves its own special box to be delivered in! I just love those flowers and orange & pink is one of my favorite color combinations....they're absolutely STUNNING!! And all the beautiful silver and embossing...puts this card right over the top my friend! Hugs. :0)
Gorgeous flowers and the texture paste with the silver foiling is gorgeous and I think the silver splatters look great, and I must try heat embossing the edge of the card as this finishes it beautifully, as does that fabulous box with the images embossed on the top and the added pink ribbon finishes it perfectly. Whoever receives this will be over the moon! x
The silver sentciling is lovely and those flowers are gorgeous. I just watched jets land in that wind on youtube and it was wild.
a beautiful card, those roses are so lovely and I love the swirls
Gorgeous card.
Oh my Mac, your card is totally stunning, I love the silver stencilling, absolutely gorgeous and such a beautiful flower. I love the design, in fact I love everything about your card, Kate x
There are no words to express how stunned I am by the beauty of your card, Mac. The way you've done the background, your coloring of the flowers, making it extra special with the box... all so gorgeous!
It's always a joy to see what you have been up to Mac, this again, is just perfection and absolutely gorgeous Mac. I love the silver and the gorgeous box, which makes it so stunning, a card and gift in one box.
I hope you saw Porthcawl on the news, Eunice was such a strong girl wasn't she? Luckily we got through unscathed.
Keep warm.

Stunning creation Mac, gorgeous colours and design

This is a beautiful card. I can see you have not wasted your time despite the lock in. The splatters look good to me and the whole design just works so well together you clever lady. Stay safe and have a great weekend, Angela xXx
Mac you are an artist! This is so lovely in the watercoloring and the stenciling and the foiling. A very special card indeed.
Another WOW card, Mac! You are on a roll, girl! We are all thankful the weather is awful and you are "forced" to stay in and craft. :) Beautiful card that is so special with all the amazing details you've added. xx
OMG those flowers are gorgeous and beautifully framed by your stenciling ♥
I've been checking out the storm warnings and seeing post about the winds in Wales, I'm sure Scotland is as bad - stay safe xx
Oh my goodness Mac, this is exquisite - love that silver stencilling, and the splatters are perfect to finish the card
Stay safe
Blessings

I'm so happy to see you've been crafting again! Your cards always inspire me1 The silver looks beautiful to me:)
Your fabulous water-coloring skills are showing, Mac!! OH how wonderful to have you joining us this month at The Flower Challenge! An absolutely gorgeous anniversary card, my friend! You have me wondering if it's for a 25th with all this wonderful silver embossing?
Please tell me whose florals these are?
=]
Just one word....WOW! You never fail to amaze me with your incredible card designs Mac. Perfect layout and your colours are superb. The box is lovely too and I'm sure that it will be very well received x
Stunning! I don't see any "horrendous" here, only layers of gorgeous-ness! The silver paste really highlights the gorgeous flowers, and so perfect in your box!
Wow Mac, this card is stunning and your silver splatters do not look horrendous! I love your watercoloring on your flowers, the centers look amazing, the stenciled paste and heat foiling is gorgeous-this whole card is just gorgeous! Hugs, Brenda
Stunning anniversary card, Mac! So glad you didn’t let those gorgeous leftover flowers go to waste. Love the silver - all of it.
I love this card! Beautiful silver embossing down the left side, gorgeous flowers - such lovely colours and fabulous watercolouring and splattering. Your high winds have even made my local Vancouver newspaper! I do hope they are over - wind can be terrifying for sure.
Wow, fabulous anniversary card, Mac! I love it!! The watercolored flowers are exquisite, and the silver and gray stenciling is so beautiful. And the matching box shows your love and care to the recipient.
Stay safe, my friend!

The silver embossing and splattering are so elegant with these gorgeous flowers, Mac! A very special anniversary card indeed!
What a wonderful keepsake for the anniversary couple, Mac! I loved going back and seeing your other design with these stunning pink flowers and these left-overs look equally gorgeous with the textured and schparkly silver! Hugs, Darnell
Wow!!!! This card is stunning and your coloring is absolutly perfect!!!!
The embossed background gives the card a classy touch!!
Wow absolutley gorgeous, great colours and brilliant design. ♥
WOW - that's a stunningly beautiful card! Love the silvery embossed side with the splash of pretty colours on the flowers. I am in awe of your talent. xxx
Another day, another storm! Hope you are keeping safe. This is a truly amazing card, so beautiful, love that paste work so much and the flowers. Thanks for sharing with us at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations challenges.
This is so pretty, I am always glad when you have had some crafting time. I do look forward to your posts. The silver embossed paste looks fabulous (must try that) and your splatters are perfect. I am realising that an embossed edge is a bit of a trade mark on your cards. It always gives that extra bit of interest and looks so classy. Well done for using your left over bits, it took a while but is done now. Thanks for sharing it with us at we love stamping, it came up on my commenting number too. I am a bit behind as I took the weekend off from commenting xx
An absolutely beautiful anniversary card! The pink flowers are so pretty along with the silver stenciling! And, how special to make a pretty box for it! I’m sure the recipient will be thrilled to receive such a beauty!
Beautiful flowers & I love the silver splatters! Very special card for a special anniversary! Hope the storm didn't cause problems for you!
Mac, your watercolored blooms are just luscious with the blend of pink and peach, and the silver flourished edge certainly sets an elegant tone for your card! Spectacular! Thank you for joining us at The Flower Challenge!
Mac this is just stunning, I love the flower and your beautifully watercoloring, the silver embossing behind the flowers, perfection
