A pretty, soft, floral card made using the Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder by Stampin' Up!

Layered Florals Embossed card

Oh my goodness, I am obsessed with the new Layered Florals 3D Embossing Folder, it is so detailed and gorgeous. I have used it today to make a pretty floral birthday card. This card was inspired by a Youtube video made by Peggy Noe  

Colours in this card are:

 

To recreate the layered floral card, you will need:

Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Pebbled Path card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Pebbled Path card – 2⅞” by ⅝”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside 

 

I embossed the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card  using the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder.

The leaves were coloured with Lemon Lolly Blends and the leaves with Soft Sea Foam Blends Pens. The embossed panel was then glued to the Pebbled Path layer and then to the Soft Sea Foam card base.

I added a piece of Tear & Tape to the back of the sentiment and wove a piece of Bubble Bath Sheer Ribbon back and forth securing it on the adhesive. The sentiment was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
