Purple Dahlias

Today I used some extra purple dahlias, I created a days ago, for a another card and did not use.  

This is a 6-inch square card.  A piece of lavender embossed card stock from my stash was used for the front of the card.  I sponged on Nuvo Mother of Pearl Embellishment Mousse across the raised parts of the embossing to give the card some shimmer.  The edges of this piece were then distressed and attached to the front of the card.

Suzanne Cannon's, A Way With Words, Congratulations die set was used for the sentiment.  It was die cut three times using purple card stock and once using white card stock.  The four die cuts were glued together with the white die cut on the bottom.  This gives a nice dimensional to the sentiment.  It was attached at the bottom of the card.

Two oval die cuts were glued together and attached to the upper portion of the card.  

Susan's Garden Notes Dahlia 2 die set was used to create the two large flowers.  

The Garden Notes Ivy die set was used to die cut two large ivy, using white card stock.  They were colored then shaped using the Flower Tool Kit.  

The Garden Notes Hydrangea die set was used to die cut 8 hydrangea flowers.  Nuvo Violet Galaxy Crystal Drops were added to the center of each of these flowers.

The Dahlias with the dahlia leaves, ivy, and the small white flowers were arranged in the oval.

On the upper corners, lavender sticky back pearls were added.

This card can be mailed out in one of the clear acrylic boxes which are linked below.
