Paper Pieced Azaleas

It's the season for both wedding cards and anniversary cards, and I've been busy creating both kinds recently! This anniversary card came together quickly and easily using Altenew's Craft-A-Flower: Sunburst Azaleas dies and some pattern papers. I also used silver glitter cardstock for the flower centers and the background to give the card some shine! There's a lot of dimension on this card as I used foam tape between some of the flower layers and then to pop up the flowers on the background. 





A closer look at the azaleas:
