Floral Silhouette

Inspiration just keeps coming... I was cruising around and saw a beautiful silhoutte on a card over at Stamping for Pleasure [Inky Snippets posted Tuesday 23rd April] which just stuck in my head - Thanks Sandra - in a good way LOL!
I made the below card - different in every way except it contains a flower in silhouette...
The flower stems have an added bit made from snippets of black - can you tell?? Those with the die will know...

Materials used: Stately ef, Die-namics flower trio & Mariane Creatable dies, paper, cardstock & sticker from stash.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Using snippets means I can play in the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop where Di is surprised it's the 70th challenge she has hosted - I'm not - I have only been blogging for a couple of months and I love visiting her wonderful and inspirational playground...
Simon Says Stamp has an Anything Goes challenge running which is limited to 5 entries per person so I have to pace myself... oh no just checked and this will be #5...

Thanks for stopping by... Mxx

    I love your framed flower card, Mo! It is cool with the scoring and the black flowers reaching into the frame. Well done and congratulations on winning that fab tree die from Pixie's!!

    Congratulations on your win at the Playground. What a lovely bright & bold card. I think I just got this die, so must check out what you added. (I'm guessing ?extra flowers?). This black really popped on your pretty background. TFS & hope to see you again soon. Hugs

    Hi, just read your comment, and zipped over, and I don't see me either, but this happens to me sometimes & I don't know why. I was pretty sure I had joined but hit the join again, and Google made me sign in. Even at sites where I'm POSITIVE I've joined, if I don't see 'me' in the pictures, I just resign in. If you know why, Oh, please - tell me!!! When I tried to click your name when the comment came in, it led me to the Circle thing-y, which won't let me do anything since I'm not a member of 'your circle'. I don't know how that business works, & sometimes people who comment at my blog - when I try to return a visit, I get that, so don't know how to get past it. I've tried to say that on my blog...got any ideas??? I'm seeing my face at this moment, & it shows you have 8 followers, which I guess 8 is me! If this doesn't work, get back to me, let me know how to get to you. I happened to remember you were at the Snippets, so I went back & found you. THAT link allowed me to reach you here. Ah blogger...Ah ignorance! I think I have 2 strikes agin me! Thanks for your visit & comment, and I hope we can get this solved. Hugs

    Back again. Just at my blog, and I'm not seeing YOU as a new follower either!! If you do want to follow, I hope we can solve this. But if you don't, that's ok too. I'd enjoy a visit when you can! More hugs.
