A big Congrats to Pat ,the Newest Featured Stamper & the last FS for 2015!! Pat has such a wonderful gallery & I had several I wanted to case, but for this card, I chose THIS. I kept the technique of the brayered embossing folder & layout, but I used different colors, a different embossing folder & different flower dies.
To make my card, I brayered the inside of the embossing folder w/ the fresh greens ink pad then embossed the large white panel. Then I die cut it to get the tiny pierced edges. The Asters, Posies & Leaves were all die cut out of white & I sponged a little yellow & orange ink (from the melon melody ink pad) in the centers. The butterflies were stamped w/ the same yellow/orange ink & die cut.
The greeting was stamped & die cut w/ a Mini Tag then all the flowers were assembled & attached. I added a bunch of die cut circles (from the Asters dies) to the centers of the embossed rings for a little extra punch.
Congrats again, ! Happy New Year everyone! Thanks so much for looking & closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, this is wow drop-dead gorgeous!!! We've had pouring rain and leaden-grey skies for two days and this bright summer sunshine card just lifts my spirits. I love the white foliage.

I totally agree with Sabrina - fabulous colours and magnificent take on Pat's card. I love both! I try and try to ink my embossing folders - the language is usually more colourful than the finished result! Must keep trying in 2016! Many thanks for all the instructions you give EVERY time, it really is appreciated!
Julie, this is stunning!!! I love how you achieved your color! Love the white circles. I love your grouping of flowers and butterflies! Great dimension!
