Botanical Builder Framelits dies create lovely cards!

I've been waiting until after Valentine's Day to play with the new Botanical stamps and framelit.  Using a couple of the wonderful designer papers in the Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack, I created the card below. I used a white gel pen to outline the flower and added some dots to the flowers to add more interest.

Late Valentine!

This is a  CASE of Wendybell's card on Splitcoast.  I got up Valentine's morning and realized I didn't have a card for my dear husband.  The design, layering, choice of papers and stamps and embellishments couldn't have been more perfect.  The burlap ribbon turned a feminine card into a perfect masculine card.





This season, one of my favorite new colors is Tip Top Taupe.  That's what I used for the base card.  I've also found that the 6X6 paper packs offer such a great selection of designs. Lots of textures and lots of layers...lots of fun!  As soon as I finished, my wonderful husband asked me to go for a walk with our dog and enjoy the 72 degree "winter weather" in Houston.  Ummm, I love living here after growing up in frigid Minnesota winters.
