Here's the challenge ...
I opted for "Use a Die". This was an easy and fun card to make. I do love making CAS cards. :)
I adore this Heart of Flowers die from Simon Says Stamp. I die-cut my card front and also a piece from my stash, (DOX inks smooshed on photo paper). I inlaid the smooshed pieces into the card front. To finish, the sentiment (Simple Sentiments - Lawn Fawn) was white heat embossed onto a metallic copper banner.
I hope you'll take some time to check out the challenge blog to see the beautiful flower cards from our amazing Designers, as well as our wonderful Guest Designer, Therese. Hope to see you in the gallery!

Hi Loll! I heart your blooming Heart of Flowers! I think it's so fun to play with Oxides on photo paper - those colors just pop!

Gorgeous smooshed Distress Oxide Inks on photo paper for your beautiful die cut and inlaid heart image, Lolly. I have this die too after being inspired by one of your past CAS beauties. You have me inspired to get it out again:-) TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
The colours of the DOX inks look so pretty Loll and your CAS card is absolutely beautiful x....Sending hugs x.
This is so impressive with the inlaid inks. The shine from the sentiment strip is so pretty and that is a fun die.
What a fun CAS card Loll, a fun die! I love the flowers that make the heart shape and I love the inky background you cut it out in. Love the sentiment right across it too. Hugs, Brenda
Beautiful card, Loll. I love the die you’ve used. xx
What a cute die for the Flower Challenge! Kind of retro looking. Your copper metallic sentiment goes so well with the AI colors. Very pretty!
Gorgeous Loll and love the beautiful bright smooshed pieces inlaid into the card and the copper strip with the white embossed sentiment looks great placed across it. x
So beautiful! And I'm not sure what rock I've been hiding under but I've not heard of smooshing DOX onto photo paper! Wow!
Beautiful colour variation in your smooshed piece, Loll! And wonderful job inlaying all those little pieces!
It's very nice of you to share your knowledge through posts. I love to read stories about your experiences. They're very useful and interesting. I am excited to read the next posts. I'm so grateful for all that you've done. Keep plugging.
The DOX background works perfectly for this die, Lolly! What patience to pop all those pieces together!
That die is indeed fabulous and it looks spectacular with those smooshed pieces inlaid into it. My favourite technique, gorgeous xx
Beautiful colors, Loll. The card is great. I have this die and just recently used it for a friend who just had their 50th wedding anniversary. I gold embossed it. It's a fun die. [Bunny]
What a fabulous card Loll, love the colours on the smooshed paper, it makes for a stunning focal point
Stay safe
Blessings

Love this die cut flower heart, a fun take on the theme and not one that sprang straight to my mind. Thanks for the inspiration. :)
the inlaid die cut flowers just pop off the page, beautiful card ♥
I love this die, too, and you've made it pop with your coloring, Lolly! And I really love the copper sediment with it! Love, Dolly
Love the colours of those die cut flowers, such a pretty card xx
Great use of DO, and in combination with this punch, it gives a spectacular effect. Beautiful design, Loll.

Gorgeous heart bloom, Loll! The ink color combo is your favorite, isn't it? The inlaid flowers beautifully pop against white background. The shiny metallic copper sentiment strip matches the shiny surface of photo paper too.

The colors, the shine, the inlaid flowers. What a great combination for a sensational CAS card, Loll. And then there's the little copper strip. Perfect!
What a fabulous idea to use inlaid die cutting for this gorgeous design Loll!
Distress oxide ink on photo paper looks so vibrant like alcohol ink on Yupo! Gorgeous! And I love the sentiment strip in metallic copper!
Oooh so pretty! I thought it was AI at first...Now there's another thing I've learnt
Loll, when I looked at this at first I was sure it was alcohol inks and now to realise its the distress oxides on photo paper, wow stunning. Love it and this die cut heart. xx
Oh my, Loll - your inlaid heart looks amazing!! What a great use of your smooshed panel for the inlay pieces and I love the copper sentiment strip!!
