Floral Card for a Global Design Sketch

Here's my take on the sketch at the Global Design Project#182 here.

I used some Sale-a-bration goodies that are only available for a few more days: Botanical Butterfly DSP and the Country Floral embossing folder.

However, one of them, the Country Floral embossing folder, will be available in the 2019-2020 Catalog, just not for free!

I colored the flowers in with Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin' Blends. And a bit of black too.

Amazing Life is the stamp set.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Amazing Life
Papers: Basic Black, Daffodil Delight, Botanical Butterfly DSP
Inks: Basic Black, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Stampin' blends
Accessories: Bitty Blooms Punch pack , Country Floral embossing Folder, Stampin dimensionals
