What a delightful find in the Pierced Blooms Dies, well the In Bloom Bundle in general! Did you catch this in the new January-June Mini Catalog? I totally missed it. Not only is it awesome when paired with the Paper Blooms DSP in the SAB catalog, but it stands alone so beautifully as well! This card was CASED from one of my favorite demos from Australia, Gail Ellis. I did add my own touch with the Soft Seafoam leaves and Pearl accents! B e sure to give this bundle a look-see! Enjoy!

To Make This Card
- Fold Basic White card in half. Attach Foil DSP to left side of card front.
- Cut out scalloped rectangle from Stitched So Sweetly dies. Set aside.
- Cut 3 Pierced Blooms in 3 sizes from Pool Party cardstock, 2 flowers from Purple Posey, a variety of Basic White "centers", and 2 "leaves" from Soft Seafoam, one from each direction, and a couple other ones as well.
- Shape the flowers and leaves a little with your fingers or a bone folder. Lay them out around the scalloped rectangle. Stamp sentiment in Sahara Sand, in "free space".
- Attach rectangle to front of card with Dimensionals. Now, go back and attach your flowers where desired. I attached the flowers first, and then leaves later.
- Attach strip of Basic White to Adhesive Foam sheet. Cut out "friend". Adhere to card above sentiment.

Beautiful. Love the colors and I love this new set with the Pierced Blooms. TFS
