To start this card I picked out the yellow striped paper for my background from the Pastel Basics Paper Pad.  Then, I die cut it using the large postage edged die from the Framework Die Set.

I stamped out this beautiful floral image from the Spring Blooms Oval.  I colored the image with copic markers and cut it out using the largest scalloped oval die from the Oval Frames Die Set.

Next, I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Spring Blooms Oval, in the center with black pigment ink, and clear heat embossed for some shine!

I assembled my card using kraft paper for the base, and popped up the oval with foam tape for some dimension!
