Lovely & Beautiful Simple Card

I originally thought that this layout would make a great card for my Senior Center gals. However, after *I* assembled this gorgeous, simple-looking card, I decided that there was too much lining up for them to accomplish. The original idea was ...Petal Pink, but I found a decorative DSP that was not pink, and, I thought was really pretty, to create my version. Don't get me wrong, I do love the layout, just not for my senior gals! So, go look through your awesome DSP scraps, find a classy embossing folder and create many versions of this layout! So many possibilities and occasions.

Measurements:

Old Olive: 1/2 sheet
Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4", scrap
Fresh Freesia: 2 1/2" x 3 3/4"
Lovely & Beautiful DSP (OE): 1 1/8" x 3 3/4" (small print)

To Make This Card:

Adhere White layer to folded Old Olive card base.
Emboss Fresh Freesia piece with Damask Designs Embossing Folder. Cut this piece into 2 pieces, by removing 5/8", leaving 1 7/8". You will be using both pieces!
I started by adhering the 5/8" strip first, then the DSP, then the final piece of Embossing Fresh Freesia cardstock. I used Multipurpose Glue to help move the strips into place, with equal spacing.
Stamp sentiment in Old Olive on scrap of White. Die cut with banner from Stylish Shapes dies.
Make loops of Gold cord and adhere to card front. Add banner over the top with Dimensionals.
Finish with Fresh Freesia Rainbow Dots.

Simply Beautiful Clean & Simple Card

I was looking for an idea that utilized the gorgeous Lovely & Beautiful DSP with the dies from the Simply Beautiful bundle, in a tasteful, but simple card! I found this one, and after several tries with different colors and sizes for the flower, I came up with this..and, it's gorgeous!

Measurements:

Petal Pink: 1/2 sheet, 3" x 3 1/2" (bottom flower)
Basic White: 2 pcs @ 4" x 5 1/4" (1 inside), 3" x 3 1/2" (top flower)
Gold foil: 2" x 2 1/2"
Lovely & Beautiful DSP (MC): 1 7/8" x 4 1/2" (petal pink print), 2 1/8" x 4" (pink & gold print - opposite side) - also 1/2" x 5 1/4" strip for inside

To Make This Card:

Run one White layer through the new Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder.
Adhere to folded Petal Pink card base.
Attach narrow, longer DSP piece, first, and then the shorter, floral & gold print next, over the the DSP.
Next, die cut 2 of the same petals. One from petal pink, and one from White.
Lightly burnish a little Petal Pink ink onto the White petal with small blending brush. Layer together with Stampin Dimensional.
Finish by adding gold foil, die cut, stamen.and scattering Petal Pink Low Profile Dots, and Gold Profile Dots for the flower centers.
Adhere DSP to folded Blackberry Bliss card base.
Attach the other 2 layers together, and attach to card front.
Die cut 2 images from DSP. Add to card front with Dimensionals.
Stamp sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink onto scrap of White. Fussy cut around words. Adhere to card with Dimensionals.
