Happy Thoughts

 Another card I hand delivered so I was able to get as bulky as I wanted, so I made a bouquet for my friend. I tried making another frame for the sentiment and added it all on a die cut shelf.


  • The Greetery - Market Basic Dies
  • Spellbinders - Be Bold Blooms dies
  • Penny Black - Autumn Decor dies (shelf)
  • Spellbinders - Labels 23 dies (frame)
  • Taylored Expressions - Many Minis Occasions sentiment stamp

I would like to share my card with the following challenges:

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

    Oh, how pretty this is! I dearly love the market basket full of flowers with the foliage trailing over. Really gorgeous paper in the background, too!

    This is fabulous Connie! What a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Love the gold wire on the container. Nice that you were able to hand deliver and could add so much dimension. Thanks so much for sharing with A Cut Above's September Challenge.

    I'm thrilled again! If I had designed this card, I would certainly have chosen a solid background. But I see it looks fantastic with a colored background, too.

    This card is such a joyful burst of creativity. The layered bouquet and die cut shelf add so much charm and dimension, and the sentiment frame is a lovely touch. The mix of dies works beautifully together, and the background paper really enhances the whole design. A truly thoughtful and artful creation.

I love the idea of using the die-cut shelf to display the flowers and the frame for the sentiment. The mix of all the different die sets really works so well together. Your friend is going to love this!
