Hello all... I haven't posted in a long time. After the baby, we moved half way around the world to the US.. It took us some time to get settled here with the baby and now we have to look after the baby alone!! So now I get very very limited time to craft. It was very exciting to see snow for the first time and now I'm waiting to see Spring bloom.
Anyway, on to the card!!
I was inspired by the lattice cards that Indira had posted (check them here) and was determined to make one!! And now, especially with the time crunch I'm attracted to CAS cards!! (check my previous one here) So here is my card, inspired by the Spring flowers.
I made a Spring wreath around the round lattice window. I made the flowers using some new punches that I bought recently. I cut the leaves using punches. I couldn't stop myself from adding a cute butterfly, again to show off my newly bought punch :D
A closer look
A view from the side.
I have not added any sentiment. I'm planning to add it as required.
I love how this card has turned out!!
I'm planning to buy a die-cutting/embossing machine in the near future. Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks in advance.
Do tell me your thoughts and comments. Hope to see you soon!

Bee-utiful lattice look w/ flowers & embellishing. I have a Sizzix BIGkick that die cuts & embosses. Have had it quite some time & like it. Thank you for entering OSAAT Ch206 Anything Goes.

Berina, hello my friend...Many thanks for joining in our challenge at Bearly Mine Designs, a very creative and gorgeous project...thanks for sharing...Annie
Without my DT hat on this is gorgeous. I think I was going to the wrong 'blog' of yours and never seemed to find new cards...xx
Absolutely beautiful Berina, loving the lattice and a big WOW to all your wonderful flowers :) :) your Good luck in this weeks OSAAT Anything Goes challenge. Hugs Jane OAAAT DT xxxxx
Oh, Berina What a come back :) Glad that you are back crafting amidst this time. Your wreath card looks beautiful! I got my big shot recently, I would suggest the same. But since you are in the US, you have plenty other options too. Once you get settled you can really hunt and find a good one :) Cuttle bug is also pretty good I think. All the best :) Hope your sweet baby is doing good :)
Just popping in with a quick hello as still computer-less so having to beg and borrow a few moments here and there, fingers crossed everything will be back to normal next week.
