Here is a pretty purple floral card made using the gorgeous Sending Smiles stamp set.
Colours used in this card are:
To recreate the purple floral card, you will need:
Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Gorgeous Grape card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Fresh Freesia card – 3” by 3”
Soft Sea Foam card – 2¾” by 2¾”
Basic White card – 2½” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
I began by die cutting stitched circles using the Stylish Shapes Dies from the squares of Basic White and Fresh Freesia card. I placed the white circle onto the smaller panel of Basic White and drew lightly around it with a pencil.

The leaf and stem image was then stamped in Granny Apple Green ink. The bushier leaves were then added in to fill out the panel using Soft Sea Foam ink.

The flowers were then added in Gorgeous Grape and Fresh Freesia ink. The centres were stamped in Daffodil Delight ink. The panel was then glued to the Gorgeous Grape layer and then to the Soft Sea Foam card base.

The sentiment, from the Beautiful Balloon stamp set, was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink onto the Basic White stitched circle.

A scalloped circle was punched out using the Decorative Circle Punch and the stamped circle added with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This piece was then added to the stitched Fresh Freesia circle using the same glue. I trimmed off the right side using a Paper Trimmer and added the piece to the card front on Dimensionals.
