Hi friends. Today I have a pretty all-occasion card featuring one of my favorite floral die sets from Cheery Lynn Designs and some pretty ribbon and funky embellishments from Really Reasonable Ribbon.
I started with an A2 card base (4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″). I cut my Quatrefoil A2 Frame 1 die in navy blue and then adhered it to a piece of Distress Ink paper I created. I then trimmed that down to 3-3/8″ x 4-5/8″. Then I layered that panel on both a navy and brown layer leaving a small border on each. I then added a piece of turftan brown delicate stitched satin ribbon across the middle of the card securing at the back. Finally there is a layer of natural mulberry paper on the bottom. This panel was then adhered to the navy card base.
The Floral Bouquet Kit is such a versatile die set with a couple of flower sizes and a wide variety of foliage dies.
My card was finished off with a pretty bi-color double-loop bow created on my Bow-it-All V3.0 Tool using turftan brown and capri blue Delicate Stitched Satin Ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

A fab card. Love the centres of the flowers. Thanks for joining Aud Sentiments challenge. Elaine
Fabulous colors and such a beautiful design. I would never have thought to use metal gears on flowers, but the effect is stunning. And again — the colors! Brown is my favorite, but the navy blue looks gorgeous with it. I love the flowers, the die cut, and the surprise of mulberry paper. Whoever receives this card will treasure it.
