Ireland's Shades Of Green.

Hi All,I am trying to play around with my camera and also trying to do something to the layout.I need lots of lessons.This card is again outside my comfort zone.I think I am happy with the outcome .On the two last photos I was trying to get a sunburst effect,with the background.Flowers are from my garden.
Product used; spellbinders Dies jewel Flower and Flourishes by Julianna Hudgins ,It is a Die that I use a lot as it gives you so many shapes.
Brads a blog hop prise from Kim Dallow and Creative Expressions.
I put Distress Clear Rock Candy on the flowers and leaves.
Mesh from a Flower arrangement.; I put Gleam Gilding Wax on to  the petals on one of the Flowers,I thought they would be Creamier ,but it is the first time using them,so will try them again,they are not what I expected,they looked totally different when I saw them Demonstrated on C.C.  So that was my days work for yesterday.Hope you all will give me feedback,good or not.
