The weave of this basket reminded me of the wood tone look. First I stamped the flowers on the panel, then drew on stems with a fine tip green pen. Then I dry embossed the panel with my Square Lattice embossing folder.
I stamped the basket, cut it out, sponged the edges and adhered it under the flowers. I sponged the edges of the panel and added pearls to the centers of the flowers.
I cut the sentiment with my key tag punch, then punched a hole on the side with my horizontal slot punch and looped 4 colors of twine through the slot. I adhered the tag to the card with foam tape.
This card is 3 x 5 1/2" so it will still fit into a regular A2 envelope even with the tag twine sticking off the edge of the card.
