Good Morning Everyone!
I hope you are all well!
Today I've got a lovely card to share with you, that uses layers of card and DSP to create an interesting background, with a bright spray of flowers to add a pop of colour - what do you think?

Take the Smoky Slate card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base.
Add the Basic White to the inside of the card.
Ink up the splatter effect from Color & Contour stamp set in Smoky Slate ink and add this to the front of your card. Use both 1st and 2nd Generation (stamping off onto scrap first, to get a lighter tone) to create some interest.
Bring in your Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine and using the Scallop Contour Dies cut out the largest frame in Copper Clay, then the next two size down in DSP - using two different pattern, having the light grey as the smallest die cut.
Stamp the Sentiment from Darling Details stamp set into the centre of the smallest die cut frame.
Layer all three together and add to the centre of the card front.
On scrap Basic White stamp some of the flowers and leaves from Darling Details Stamp Set. I used Melon Mambo for the outline and Bubble bath for the solid in fill on the larger flower. The smaller flower was outlines with Pumpkin Pie and filled in with Lemon Lolly, and finally the leaves outline was stamped in Granny Apple Green and filled in with Parakeet Party. I chose to fussy cut these out as I didn't want a white border around my images, but you could use the coordinating Darling Details Dies to cut out if you prefer.
Arrange these on to the front of your card with a mix of Dimensionals and liquid glue. The Single flower in the lower right looked a little odd on its own, so I drew a thin stem with my Stampin Write marker in Granny Apple Green and added the leaves off this. It really helped to ground the image.
Finally pop on a few Rhinestones to add a little bling.
