It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Trio-tastic". Use 3 of something in your project.
For this card I dusted off my Gelli Plate after a very long time and it was quite dusty... This technique I've seen at a craft exhibition in the Netherlands and found it so cool that I wanted to try it for my own card. Somewhere I had heard or read that it wasn't a good idea to work with ink on your Gelli Plate because of staining, so I was very surprised when I saw this technique with Distress Ink. It takes some practice, because this take was my 6th... But I knew what I wanted, else I probably was happy with my first attempt...
This challenge asks for three of something, and I've used three different kind of Distress Products. First Distress Ink with Gelli Plate. Secondly, I used Distress Stain Spray for splashes and third I used Distress Crayon for distressing the edges.

Beautiful card Sandra! That background is stunning! And I love the look of the flower and how you used the tape like soil. Hugs!
This is great! I love the soft background you got by using the gelli plate. I guess the first 5 tries were great also... The contrast with black wildflowers is stunning. Hugs, Marzena
It's so beautiful, tfs!
Beautiful card Sandra! I LOVE the flowers, but the soft and dreamy background is wonderful!
So lovely! Saw it on Pinterest and popped over to say hello.
Beautiful card, Sandra, and an inspiration to dust off my gelli plate too and try this! I am always intrigued by your little signature cluster of three circles - I always look for them! Happy Thanksgiving, Maura
Lovely design, Sandra! The florals are so pretty :)
