Fun Flowers!!

Hello Friends,
I hope your week started out to be a great one!!! I just received this Fun Flower die and LOVE LOVE it!!! It's one of my favorites dies right now!! My card is a very simple but pretty card.  I embossed the base with one of Stampin' Up's! emboss folder and inked the edges with Early Espresso #119870 which has become one of my favorite inks to sponge the edges:)  I also used my bone folder to curl the petals on the flower to give it more of a dimension and check out that gorgeous fabric brad from out Sweet Stitches collection #121880 isn't it just lovely?  Have a fabulous day and till next time ENJOY!! ****Hugs****

  7. It's beautiful Norma. I love it. The flower is gorgeous with the inked edges, and how did you do the leaves? Are they die cut with 2 different greens or is the pattern in the paper (that looks like a leaf). It's just perfect!--Pat
