New Craft US Crazy challenge

Hi everyone - so sorry this post is late - I a hopeless at tring to schedule posts and it never works and when I tried to get onto blogger this morning the site was down so have only just got on here.  Anyway, better late than never!
This weeks challenge is USE YOUR FAVORITE EMBELLISHMENT/s AND/OR SOMETHING NEW!!!! That means any embellishments that you find yourself reaching for over and over, or that you love seeing on projects...or something new (ie, baby, house, car, stamp sets, embellishments...whatever is NEW!) It doesn't have to be both...you can do one or the other, but if you're feeling up to a bigger challenge, see if you can use both!!!

I have used some new paint fusion stamps from Sheena Douglass for my project;



I've made a card that has a little box for 5 tealights on the side.  The tealights I had were sunflowers so a little bigger than normal so I could only fit in 4.  I have the new sunflower stamps for paint fusin so I used these to match the tealights and painted them onto a crackled mountboard tag.  I added some ribbon and layered up some coredinations card stock as a base.  I used an embossing folder from Darice to emboss the flowers on the yellow card.
It's a really simple card but quite effective.
