Good Evening Everyone
Today I'm taking part in the Stampin Dreams blog hop and our theme this month is Florals. Which is great as I seem to have built up quite a collection of floral stamp sets and papers. It took a bit of time to decide which ones to use, but I decided to use the Hues of Happiness bundle DSP, Happiness Abounds stamp set and the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder, for a simple yet very beautiful 'Best Wishes' card.

fussy cut flowers
----------------------------------------------
Take the larger piece of Night of Navy and fold along the score line to create your card base. Add the basic white panel to the inside.
Bring in your Cut & Emboss Machine and run through the remaining piece of Night of Navy card stock in your Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder.
Add Craft ink to a blending brush and very little apply ink to the embossed piece. This will help the design stamp out and add extra depth.
Place this panel into the centre of the card front.
Layer up the DSP and the melon mambo card and add to the card front.
Stamp the Sentiment in Night of Navy ink onto a scrap of Basic White a trim, then layer onto a scrap of Melon Mambo - trimming down to leave a thin border along the top and bottom edges.
Add the sentiment to the card front, lining up the right edge with the edge of the embossed panel.
Finally add the fussy cut flowers to the left of the sentiment.
I hope you have enjoyed my card today - please take a look at the list below and continue through the hop for lots and lots of Floral Inspiration
