Hi Stampers! 
I finally had a chance to be creative again
this evening and decided to participate in this week’s PP80 Sketch Challengewith The Paper Players (love the sketch Anne Marie!) along with the colors from this week's CQC122 ColourQ Challenge and the Stampin' Royalty SR109 “Valentine's Day- It's All About Love” Theme Challenge. Again, if you have the time,
please stop by each of these sites and check out all of the fabulous
inspiration! 
To create this card:
Emboss a piece of Crumb Cake using the Big
Shot™ with the Elegant Bouquet Impressions™ Embossing Folder and a piece of
Real Red Designer Series Paper with the Finial Press Impressions™ Embossing
Folder. Lightly sand the Real Red layer
and stamp the background stamp from
Charming with Crumb Cake ink lightly over the Crumb Cake layer.
Use Stampin’ Write markers to color the
floral image (I used Real Red, Regal Rose and Basic Black) and stamp onto
Whisper White cardstock. Emboss with the
Big Shot™ and the Designer Label (Oval) Frame Textured Impressions™ Embossing
Folder. Carefully cut around the edge
and layer onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock (cut with the Framelits™ Labels
Die.
Punch out a few flowers with the Boho
Blossom Punch from Real Red and Basic Black cardstock, add the 5/8” Black Satin Ribbon, Pearls and sentiment to finish
off the card.
Stamp Sets:

Paper: Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Whisper
White, Real Red DSP
