Sneak on over to MMSC by clicking on http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/. See the great sketch Priscilla comes up with each week!! This stamp is a stamp for stamping on walls, I found it in the paint section of Michael's a few years ago. I stamped them in some color (made these months ago) and clear embossed them. I applied a dew drop to center of each flower and a few MS branch punches under flowers. I mounted these on pop dots on a Round the Corner punch by Martha Stewart. The blue behind the flowers is wallpaper that was left over from the previous owners of my daughters home. I used taffeta ribbon from Hobby Lobby and some miscellaneous purple stripe paper (might be Basic Gray???) I also used another MS border punch behind the blue wallpaper. The envelope is made using Priscilla's 5 x 7 envelope template that you can purchase at http://priscillastyles-store.blogspot.com/. The envelope is made out of the blue wallpaper with some cording that I purchased at JoAnn's and a coffee filter flower. I made the flowers by punching small scalloped circles from coffee filters and scrunched and stickled them. VOILA!!

Phyllis you are still the queen of flowers in my book. You know how to make them shine and pop right off the paper. I am intrigued by the coffee filer flower here that you have made for this card. Amazing and gorgeous.
