I'm feeling ecstatic after fininshing this card, maybe all those times stamping 'Happy Happy Joy Joy' improved my mood as well as made my card extra cheerful! I used this week's sketch and the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge which is to stamp a background, I used the sentiment for my bg stamped on Strawberry Slush. The dahlia is heat embossed and watercolored with reinkers and I added a gingham knot to the sentiment framed with Spellbinder dies. On top of the corregated piece is a Sweet n Sassy small scalloped border and below, just peeking out is a Taylored Expessions lace border die.
