I first embossed the background then I did some blending with my inks and my blending tool. over the embossed areas. I then took a yellow ink and went over the center area. I colored the stamped image with my markers and cut it out. I felt it needed a little more and I have a roll of this loose weave mesh that I believe I picked up at Hobby Lobby a few years ago, so I put that down for a mat for my flowers to rest on and then finished it off with a little bow! Had to add a few gems to top it off!

Beautiful. Lovely style and gorgeous goodies on here. Hope you had a lovely Mother's Day. ♥
I love the texture your mesh adds to the card and those beautifully colored flowers!
So much wonderful texture on your beautiful card Connie. The inked embossing is so pretty and makes everything else just pop off the card. Hope you had a lovely Mother's day yesterday.
What a fun embossed background, color and use of burlap.

So beautiful! Beautiful design, beautiful colors! Love the floral image!
The pretty pastel colours in this gorgeous card are joyous, Connie. Another beautiful one-if-a-kind card. I love your store Barnes and Noble. Why, if I lived in the US I think I could happily spend many, many hours in this store.
