The flower is made with the Spellbinders Sunflower Dies (Set Two), sponged with Soft Sky and Baja Breeze inks, and layered with dimensionals onto the Chocolate Chip scalloped circle.
The cardstock vellum panel is stamped with the Gentler Times scroll design using Palette New Canvas (white) ink and embossed in detail white EP. I dry embossed the design on the back side to add some dimension and white shading, then layered it over a strip of Soft Sky cardstock.

Finished size is 5 x 6 1/2 inches.

Such a beautiful card. Oh my, so much detail and precision, but that's what you do best. Your colors together are so wonderful, and that design is simply gorgeous. Just another gorgeous card from your studio!

Another beautiful card Linda and I have that die cut on the work space right now but I plan to go soft pink this time. Very nice mix of colors, papers and great layout also!
