Best Wishes
Hello bloggers! I embossed a piece of white card with the Floral Brocade embossing folder to use as the background. Next I cut the Floral Wishes die out of white card to use as the base. I inked the stem and leaves with Crushed Olive Distress ink. I put smaller pieces of coloured card over the flowers and cut them, then nipped away the excess and glued them in place on top of the green base. I cut a smaller piece of white card and used Tumbled Glass Distress ink and sponged it in the centre. I used the Doubled Stitched Ovals and cut a thin white frame. I added the frame over the sponged card and then nipped away the excess. I attached it in the centre of the card with mounting foam. I cut the sentiment banner out of white card and added it to the Floral Wishes die, then cut the words out of Ocean card and paper pieced them into the banner. I added several butterflies and glittered them, then attached them to the frame and banner. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue.
Oh my word, this is amazing, this is a gift in itself, this needs a glass fronted frame shadow box and mounted for that special occasion, such a wonderful gift, such a beautiful way to start our day.
Love to all.

Oh wow, what a work of art. The Floral Brocade embossing folder is an oldie but such a goodie. One of my all time favourites. Love the way you have ‘created’ the flower ‘scene’ and the delicate inking in the background is subtle but gives the card so much depth. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous x
Take care one and all x

Hi Sue, this card is gorgeous. I love the scene you have created and it really does look like a plaque that should be on a wall. The Floral Wishes die is on my wish list and I hope it won't be too long before it is mine.
