Hi! I'm playing in The Flower Challenge today. They're asking for sparkle and I had this not-yet-used Rose Teacup set from Stampendous on my table. What a fun combination. It's only been in the basket for a year, I believe. 🙄
I white-embossed the stamps and watercolored with Spectrum Noir sparkle pens. There's lots more sparkle than you can see here. I love those pens! The stick-on butterfly has glittery wings and a rhinestone body that refracts the light nicely, too.
White on white for the background with a delicately die cut oval frame. I don't know the name of the frame die because it was in a package of die cuts sent by a friend. All the images were hand cut. The bouquet that fills the cup is popped up.
Two challenges:
NBUS Challenge #42 The Stampendous Rose Teacup is out of the package for the first time.
Thank you for coming today. Take good care and I will hope to see you again soon.

I've finally gotten my act together and added your blog to the list that I follow on my blog, so now I don't miss any more of your beautiful creations Leslie! And this one is definitely a beauty today! It was worth the wait for you to pull it out of the packaging, and I'm sure that sparkle is incredible in real life...soooooo pretty! Love the die cut white background too...it really makes those lovely flowers pop! Hugs. :0)
oh very pretty and delicate. No objection to receiving a cup of flowers... have a great day
I'm so glad you found this set in your basket. I love teapots/teacups and this one is colored so pretty. I like putting my cut pansies in my teacups too. They look so pretty! Love the oval die it is resting in as well with that cute butterfly! Have a great weekend!
Leslie, I'm sure it was just waiting for your attention - and the attention you give to details! Just enough sparkle AND a flutterby? You spoil us!
Thanks for playing cards with us at The Flower Challenge!

Oh my your die cut background makes a lovely frame for your beautiful flowers, I too love those sparkle pens! the butterfly is so pretty with it, pretty dimension with popping up the flowers!
I just love all that sparkle and paired with the delicate die cuts it stands out beautifully! Such a sweet card, I love butterflies and roses! What a wonderful new set, glad to see it inked up!
First off I love the die cut in the background! Then of course who doesn't love a pretty butterfly and your coloring on the cup and flowers is just so beautiful! So I guess you can see I love each and every element you used. Go girl!
Beautiful rose teacup and gorgeous sparkle on the butterfly ♥
Beautiful card Leslie. The colouring is as always so pretty. Love the vibrant colours of the flowers and how you frame the teacup.
Leslie, using those pens is a fabulous way to add the sparkle to a bloom. I may have to dig out my set. This is gorgeous. Love all the layers.
Gorgeous card, Leslie. The added sparkle is just perfect. xx

Everything about your card is so beautifully done Leslie! What a charming teacup holding that pretty bouquet, I'll bet the sparkle is amazing, and the background adds the perfect delicate detail. I'm so glad you finally decided to use it, just in time for this month's Flower Challenge. Thanks so much for joining us!
Glad you got to show it some love! Just gorgeous. Thanks for joining us this month at The Flower Challenge, sorry I’m so late visiting you. I hope to see you next month too. Cara DT x
Oh, I can imagine the sparkle. Your flowers are so beautifully framed by that background too. The little butterfly is the perfect finishing touch. Sorry for my late visit to this one, my days just keep running out on me xx
Leslie, I apologize for this late comment, my hubby is finally retired and we've been out and about often.
But let me tell you that I love this card, the die cut background is just perfect for this lovely cup of flowers, the colors are so beautiful and the fluttering butterfly just adds to the charm and sweetness of this card.
Thank you for sharing with us at THE FLOWER CHALLENGE.
Stay healthy and safe.
