I die cut the saucer from Basic White scrap and added Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow ink with Sponge Daubers. I cut a slit at the top of the pot and added leaves, die cut from scrap Granny Apple and Pretty Peacock card. The flowers were cut from scrap Lemon Lolly and White card and the yellow centres added with a Lemon Lolly Blends Pen. All the pieces were then arranged on the card front.

This pretty, floral card was made using the Petals of Beauty stamp set and Dies, both on  the last chance list and two of our retiring In Colors – Pretty In Pink and Petunia Pop.

Lovely Blossom dsp 5⅛” by 3⅜”

I glued the panel of Lovely Blossom dsp to one of the Basic White layers and then adhered it to the Pretty In Pink card front.

From the square of Basic White card, I cut a stitched circle using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I stamped the sentiment, from the Layers of Beauty stamp set onto the circle with Secret Sea ink and mounted the circle onto the card front on Dimensionals.

On scrap Basic White card I stamped the outline of the large flower with Petunia Pop ink and added the infill colour with Pretty In Pink ink. I stamped 2 of the smaller flowers in the same manner. The flower centres were added with Early Espresso ink. These were die cut using the Petals of Beauty Dies.
