I created this card for the Teapot Challenge for Shelly's dear friend who has bone cancer. She loves pink and purple flowers, so if you have a moment check out today's challenge and let's shower her with flowers.
I die cut lots and lots of pink and purple flowers. I couldn't decide what to do with all of these flowers. I tried several ideas, but eventually arranged some of them in a bouquet on a round die cut. I tied a triple bow with silver ribbon and glued it onto the flowers. I embossed my white card and sponged over it with pink and purple ink. I used 3D pop dots to attach the flower circle to my card. I added Stickles glitter to the flowers.
I decided to not add a sentiment to the front of the card. It looked finished without one. I stamped a sentiment inside. Sending out love and prayers to Shelly's friend, Sandy, during this difficult time.

Loving all of your die flowers in Pinks and Purples with great texture and sparkles too. The scroll borders are a beautiful touch as well. Thanks so much Gracie for making this card for Sandy- she will so appreciate it and I know it will put a smile on her face!
