Using Sponge Daubers I added ink to the reverse of the embossed panel. I used Lemon Lolly, Berry Burst, Timid Tiger and Coastal Cabana inks. The Sponge Daubers add the ink unevenly to the image and I really like the distressed effect it gives.

Bubble Bath card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side Lost Lagoon – 5” by 3⅜” Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside Velvet Meadow dsp – 2⅞” by ½” Bubble Bath – 3⅜” by 2⅛” Basic White – 3¼” by 2” Bubble Bath – 1⅝” by ½” Scrap Basic White and Artisan Sketched Garden dsp
I ran one of the largest panels of Basic White card through the Cut & Emboss Machine inside the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder. The embossed panel was then trimmed down to 4⅞” by 3 ¼” before it was adhered to the Lost lagoon layer. The whole piece was glued to the Bubble Bath card front.

The three pieces of Velvet Meadow dsp were added to the card front using Mini Glue Dots.
I glued the smaller piece of Basic White card to the slightly larger layer of Bubble Bath card and added it over the strips of dsp on Dimensionals.

The vase was die cut from a scrap of Artisan Sketched Garden dsp – I actually die cut the vase from several different dsp scraps before settling on this one. The rose was cut down and added to the back of the vase with a Mini Glue Dot before the vase and flower were glued to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Lost Lagoon ink onto the small piece of Bubble Bath card and added to the card front. I used tape to mask off the words I didn’t want to use before stamping it down.

To finish the card I added three small black dots from my stash, a trio of Sunset Sparkle Sequins and a Baker’s Twine bow.
