Hi guys, I'm using the Floral Tags for today's card. This is a really simple card, nothing too tricky and you probably don't really need a rundown so I will keep it quick. I have used the Elegance embossibility folder for the background. Since it is geometric and easily extendable, that is what I have done to create a larger background area (6" x 7"). I cut six of the daisies from the Floral Tag set and inked up two mustard seed, two with spun sugar and two with victorian velvet distress inks. I added a bit of Cosmic Shimmer aurora sparkle glitter to the centres of each flower. I adhered the daisies so that they were cascading down the card. I cut out eight of the leaves from the set and inked them with shabby shutters distress ink for a bit of colour and attached them randomly around the flowers. I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the plain tag die and inked it with spun sugar for a highlight. I attached the tag in the bottom corner and pierced around the edges for a framed finish. Just a nice way to say have a great day!
Just a quick note to say that I see we have reached our blog candy goal of 3000 followers! I will do the drawing after I finish all the shows I have scheduled this week and post the winners in a special post Thursday afternoon sometime! All for now, Sue x

Another one of these floewercards, and just as lovely as the first one of this kind. Really gorgeous work, but I do miss a bow, and it´s soo unlike you to leave that out and even more times now? ha ha ha. But I love this card too.
Good Morning Sue, A very refreshing card, I like the texture too, could be for any occasion.
