Avery Elle Floral Frame

Today's card was made for my sister-in-law's birthday, and uses a very beautiful floral stamp set from Avery Elle.

I started with a watercolor paper panel, gold embossed the flower frame and colored with zigs.  I also embossed a few individual flowers, and fussy cut after coloring them.  The sentiment was also embossed in gold - the embossing shows more in this detail photo.  In real life it's very beautiful.

 

After die cutting the panel with stitched edging, I foam mounted the individual flowers for a bit of dimension. I then added a gold glitter strip to the edge, layered onto some pretty patterned paper and onto my card front.  Simple, beautiful, elegant.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog today!
