I have been on a “simple” card routine of late. Today is not really any different. I am showcasing a single flower paired with a sentiment to make you smile.
STAMPS & DIES
The focal flower today is from the Pretty Florals Bundle. I have stamped and Die cut the images previously, but not used the definition Die cuts. That is what I did today. I really love the detail on the cardstock flower. And adding the darker highlight really ups the beauty. And the matching detail in the leaves is just icing on the cake, or flower! I am so happy that I gave this set another look and studied it a little for all the possibilities. And there are more than what I have done today.
EXTRA DIES
To create the background for the flower as well as the sentiment layer, I turned to the Stylish Shapes Die set. This set is such a Go To for me. I love the layering Dies, and there always seems to be one that fits! The circle for the flower is the largest of the Circle Dies. And the banner for the sentiment is also the largest of that shape.
EXTRA STAMPS
This super sweet sentiment is a favorite of mine. For me, my cardmaking is to make me and others happy. So to get a smile from someone over a card I have made is my big reward. Naturally this sentiment would speak to me. And it is so nice to let those who do make us happy know about it. This wonderful sentiment is from the Sweet Blooms stamp set.
PAPERS
The floral DSP is what started the color choices for this card. And it is actually a back side of a large print. You know how I love using the reverse sides! This is from the Florals In Bloom Designer Series Paper. I pulled Petunia Pop from the DSP as well as the Bubble Bath. The green is Granny Apple Green and after using it for the leaves decided it was perfect as the card base color.
EXTRAS
To complete the card I only needed some bling. I chose to use the Flower Accents. There are a couple of different sizes of these. I went with the smallest and placed one at the flower center and the others on the sentiment layer. The mission was completed.
