What a lovely color scheme
Create with Connie and Mary has today: S
o Saffron, Pool Party and Island Indigo! I'm not sure where my idea for this card came from... it just appeared in my head one evening and I'm happy with the way it turned out!
I had so much fun with the
Blossom Party Die a couple of weeks ago that I decided to use it again, only this time, it is the smallest flower on the die, a 1-3/8" daisy-like flower.
I used a
Whisper White card then embossed another white layer with the
Delicate Designs scallop edge Embossing Folder on both the top and bottom edges. That left an area in between for my flowers. I diecut three of each color flower (it's easy to do because you can cut maybe five or six layers of Stampin' Up! quality cardstock at a time on this die) and attached them, rotating the layers. The two outside flowers are centered with an
In Color Printed Brad and a small flower punched using the
BoHo Blossoms Punch.
The center flower has a punch out then a
So Saffron flower button from the
Designer Subtles Collection, tied with
Linen Thread. Each flower is layered on a 1-5/8" colored cardstock square layered with a 1-1/2" Whisper White square that has been embossed with the Fancy Fan Embossing Folder.
The tag is stamped with "best" from the
Fabulous Phrases set and punched out with the retiring
Jewelry Tag Punch.
Here again are the colors for today's challenge from
Create with Connie and Mary; aren't they pretty together?!
Now it's your turn to create! Make your card using these colors and the guidelines on the

What a great way to use the colors Margaret. Love how you inter-changed the square colors with the flowers. And those flowers are awesome!
Love the flowers and all the textures on this card! Such a pretty card! Using the three squares in the center of the card has always been a favorite layout of mine.
