Gratitude

I'm still low on thank you cards and need to continue to make them.  I was so happy with the way this card turned out - the soft colors just look so pretty together!

I used Fine Linen cardstock for the card base, using Card Edgers on the right hand side on just the top portion of the card.  I added a layer of this pretty, soft, flowered pattern paper.  Honestly, this is a pattern paper I never thought I would use!

Next I die-cut the flower using Lovely Layers - the flower is cut with Melon Berry and Fine Linen cardstock.  I stamped the veins on the flowers and leaves and added the Scarlet Jewel center to the top of the flower.  The gold "brad" on top is a faux brad.  I placed the entire flower on foam tape for dimension.

I cut another strip of Fine Linen, stamped the sentiment in brown ink and tucked it behind the flower.  This has to be one of my favorite cards I made this year!
