All Things Wonderful

Hello my friend and thank you!  Thank you for all of your sweet words concerning this post.  You all are so nice!  So, I have a little card today featuring my most fav technique, heat embossing AND dry embossing!  CAS-ual Friday's has a stellar embossing challenge and Embellish has a fab color challenge, let's put them together!  After I made my card I remembered there is another component to the Embellish challenge...uh oh.  I double check and PHEW!  I made an embossed flower!  What luck.  Ever happen to you?


Starting with a Kraft card stock panel, I ran it through my Big Shot with my fav Woodgrain Impression plate and adhered the panel to a cream card base.


I stamped and embossed my flowers onto Pure Poppy card stock and cut them out, layering them and adding two leaves in New Leaf.  Finished off the flower with a pearl


Lastly, I took a lovely Hero Arts sentiment and stamped that in Rich Cocoa.


Here is the inspiration picture:


I hope you enjoyed today's card!  I really appreciate your visit!  Have a great day!

Lindsay
