Bright Floral Friendship Greetings

Good afternoon crafters,
I am showcasing one more bright and cheerful spring Friendship card today. I love the fresh bold spring colors and the message on this card matches the flowers perfectly. These flowers were hand stamped and hand shaped for additional dimension. The flowers are then layered in multiple layers and accented by small craft jewels. These flowers are from the Heartfelt Creations Daisy Patch and the Arianna  Blooms collection. In this case I tried to use different bright flowers, some of which were heat  embossed with gorgeous glitter embossing powders. I like to usually add an odd number of flowers and accent my sentiment with different sized florals. See a couple different designs of the same card below which shows off different flowers and colors to really bring out the Friendship message in the center of the card.Dies R Us Spring Challenge

I love to use the 5.5 x 5.5 square card size versus the standard A2 or A7 sized cards to make the cards a little more formal. Layering a black frame underneath the patterned designer paper makes the card stand out even more. The cute little butterflies are also courtesy of Heartfelt Creations and come from their Butterfly Medley collection. These were hand stamped on vellum with Versamark ink and then embossed with white embossing powder.  I like to use heavier vellum paper so that I can bend the wings for an extra 3d effect.




I am happy to enter the Dies R Us Spring Challenge
Enjoy this beautiful card. Hopefully it helps provide you with some inspiration and ideas to work on your next greeting card project.

More to come. Until then I wish you the best! Sabrina
