Heartfelt Blooms Thinking of You Card

This is such a pretty card with layers, bits of ribbon and sparkle! The softness of the water color makes a sweet background for the intricate floral dies and the shimmery ribbon and gems add just enough dazzle.

If you want to step-up your paper crafting game, a die-cutting machine such as the Big Shot used to cut the floral dies from the Flourish Thinlits is a must. Using the right tools and a few fun techniques make creating this fancy card a breeze.

When you place an order with me of $50 or more (before tax and shipping) using Hostess Code 3SDF7H9F before midnight tonight, Friday, February 23, 2018.
