I rubbed my embossing body over a scrap piece of Misty Moonlight card and the sentiment from the Country Home stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink. I covered the Versamark with White Embossing Powder and Heat Set it using my Heat Tool.

Using my sharp scissors, I fussy cut the sentiment. I only wanted part of the sentiment for this card and this is a great way to get more from the sentiments you have. The sentiment was added over the ribbon with liquid glue and a bow of the same ribbon added to the side. I added a trio of 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots around the flowers. To complete the card, I fussy cut a couple of tiny dragonflies from the Dandy Garden dsp and added them to the card front with a spot of glue.

I hope you like it.

To recreate the wildflowers card you will need:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner

I ran the large panel of Petal Pink through the Big Shot in the Parisian Flourish Embossing Folder then cut it on the diagonal giving me 2 pieces. I glued the strip of Cherry Cobbler along the top edge and trimmed of the excess with scissors. I adhered the embossed piece to the front of the Petal Pink card base using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
