Red Hibiscus Flowers

Hello Crafty Stampers,
One of my recent makes using die cuts and hot foiling.  The background was dry embossed with the WeR Memory Keepers 3D E/Folder Woven.  All of the flowers were sponged with colour from white card and the sentiment was hot foiled and fussy cut and mounted on dimensionals.  I finished off with the red pearls and added a spray of leaves and a flower to the inside.
Thanks for stopping by today.
