Is this card too weird?
A huge metal flower bursts out from the gates of an old mansion!
I made the flower by die cutting a metal sheet (Tim Holtz die) , embossing it and colouring it with alcohol inks. I stamped the gates (Kanban) , birds, and sentiment (Craft Stamper freebie) and dry embossed the mount.
At Inkspirational we have a word prompt - 'bloom' - to interpret as you like. Come over and see what the DT and our wonderful Guest Designer, Julie have done.

WOW WOW WOW!!! i LOVE this beautiful bloom :) So glad you joined us on Sentimental Sundays this week.
Wow, I thought that was fabric, what a cool technique and no not weird as to me it matches the iron gate and I think the colour looks like an iron colour. And I think the idea it is so big is because it is blooming out of the gate!! I see all this so perhaps I am the weird one! See you Wed!
This is a stunning card Marina and the flower is amazing
Love Chrissie x
Great card with a lot of personality, I wouldn't call it weird! :) I like the monochrome color scheme and the gate stamp. Cool technique for the flower!
This is art, not weird, Marina. :)
Some great stuff on this blog you've got! :)
Oh wow! Your flower is amazing and I love the monochrome effect, gorgeous, thanks for joining us at Crafty Catz this week, Jac x
Metal? Really? Well, I'm blown away with how wonderfully eye-catching your flower is, with the embossing and colours. The centre rhinestone is perfect! Your background is striking with the scrolled iron gate (beautiful stamp), birds and cheerful sentiment. Nothing weird about this whatsoever; I call it amazing!!

Weird? No. Creative? Yes!! I had never thought of die-cutting a metal sheet, so the flower is very stunning. Thanks for joining us at Scrapping 4 Fun Challenges. :D
