Beautiful Floral card for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects themed around a picture/colour challenge. As the picture is floral themed, I couldn’t resist using the Textured Florals stamp set and dies to make my card.

 

Colours used in this beautiful floral card are:

 

To recreate the Beautiful fFloral card, you will need:

Daffodil Delight card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Garden Green card – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White card

 

The smaller panel of Basic White card was embossed using one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders. I glued it to the Garden Green panel. This was then added to the card front using the same liquid glue.
