Simple and Soft


This came out exactly as I imagined, and I like what I imagined.  Now that doesn't happen very often!

While it looks like a one layer card, it is actually 4 pieces:  (1) an A2 white card, (2) the portion above the die cut flowers, (3) the die cut flowers, and (4) the portion below the flowers.



Because I wanted a deep indentation, I pulled out a piece of #110 lb white cardstock by Recollections, rather than the 80 lb Neenah that I often use.  Worked like a charm.

Die by Memory Box.  Colored with Copics.  Glue by an international conglomerate, sucking the money out of our pockets.

MOOD WHEN DONE = Serene

So pretty! Love the simplicity of it! I need to emboss with my dies more - keep forgetting about that option.
