I focused on a smaller bouquet option (from the Beautiful Bouquet set) for my second card and am highlighting a wonderful new set of dies called Love to Layer: Notched Dies. I used all three sizes and popped up a couple of layers with foam tape to add more dimension. You'll hear more about the sentiment set and "mom" die on a later
date, but thought this Beautiful Bouquet Tag Die was perfect for this design! I cut out and layered the "mom" die three times to give more dimension. The background was fun to create by smooshing distress oxide inks onto an acrylic block then "picking up" the ink by tapping watercolor card stock over the block then splattering with a darker color after it was dry.
