I made this card with a lovely Sizzix flower stamp and die - I do love coordinating stamps and dies as I don't have much patience for fussy cutting!
To make this card I used:
C6 white hammer card blank
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Oval STAX Die-namics' die
Sizzix 'Floral Hello' stamps and coordinating die
Clearly Besotted 'Fancy Sayings' sentiment stamp
Versafine Vintage Sepia ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Promarkers
Snippets of white hammer card and white matt card
Altenew Crysstal Clear enamel dots
Wink of Stells
I used brown ink to stamp the flowers onto a snippet of white matt card. I embossed them with clear embossing powder before cutting them with the coordinating die. I used a pink Promarker for the flowers, bright green for the flower centres and a darker green for the leaves. I die cut a stitched oval from a snippet of white hammer card and put it into my MISTI before placing the flowers onto the circle so I could see where to position the sentiment. I removed the flowers and stamped the sentiment with brown ink before embossing it with clear embossing powder. The oval was attached to the centre of the card blank with foam pads and the flowers attached above and below the sentiment. I added a Wink of Stella to the flower petals and three small clear enamel dots around the sentiment.

The flowers are very pretty Kath and the design works beautifully with the oval mat with the flowers placed on the left and right hand side of it, and finished perfectly with the added brown inked sentiment and clear crystal enamel dots. x
Such a pretty CAS card, Kath. I'm not a fan of fussy cutting either.
