This lovely card is a 8" square card and it has been matted and layered with cream Centura Pearl from Crafters Companion
To create the centre panel I have used the same principle used in the Creating A Frame with Spellbinders .... just different dies.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a beautiful mixture of cream Roses, Lilies, Tulips and Carnations.
The flowers have been sparkled with Glamour Dust and the pearl flourish is from Want2Scrap to add the elegant touch
The inside of the card has been decorated to match the front.
All the panels have been embossed with an 8 x 8 folder from Crafters Companion called Elegance.
The folder adds two different patterns with a plain strip in between. I have heat embossed the sentiment in silver directly onto that strip... which is not something I usually do.
I prefer to stamp and emboss on a tag and then add that to the card ... just in case I make a mess !! And "YES" ... I do make mistakes ... but it is surprising what a flower can cover up ... if you know what I mean ... and I bet you do !!
More tomorrow ...
