Stop and Smell the Flowers

 Hi everyone!  I'm up on the Pawsome Stamps blog today with this card I created using the new and beautiful Friendly Flowers Stamp and Die Set illustrated by Agota Pop!

Friendly Flowers Stamp and Die Set illustrated by Agota Pop, Bubble Party Stencil by Pawsome Stamps #pawsomestamps #handmade

To start this card I cut a piece of white cardstock to 6" x 3 1/2", and a piece of black cardstock to 6" x 2 1/4".  I used the new Bubble Party Stencil with gold glitter paste on the black cardstock to create a sparkling background!

Next, I stamped out these gorgeous floral images from the Friendly Flowers Stamp Set, colored them with copic markers, and cut them out using the coordinating die set.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Friendly Flowers Stamp Set, directly onto the white cardstock in black pigment ink, and clear heat embossed for some shine!

I assembled my card, using a black cardstock for the base, and a black ribbon between the top and bottom half.  I popped up the images with foam tape for some dimension!
