Hello! I hope you are well.
Some of the nicest mail we can receive is a simple card sent for no reason other than to say hello and let someone you care about know that they are on your mind. I’ve been playing around withe Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper and the Deckled Rectangles dies to create today’s card…

I also used the gorgeous Irresistible Blooms stamps and dies to add the sentiment and floral decorations.
To make the frames I started with a piece of Countryside Inn DSP and layered up 3 of the Deckled Rectangles

I discarded the outside piece and the skinny little frame created by the 2nd and 3rd dies. Before putting the remaining 2 pieces on my card base I stamped the base with Boho Blue ink and the splatter image from Irresistible Blooms.
The Countryside Inn DSP rectangles were added to the card base with Foam Adhesive strips…

I stamped 1 large and 2 smaller flowers from Irresistible Blooms onto Boho Blue card with Versamark ink, added white embossing powder and heat set it before die cutting them. I wanted to dull the card colour down a little so diluted some white pigment ink refill with water and white washed the flowers.
I stamped the hello sentiment with Boho Blue ink on white card and cut it with the Double Oval punch. I cut the larger oval from Boho Blue card, layered them together and stuck them onto the card, with some Boho Blue ribbon and the die cut flowers. I didn’t add any more dimensionals for these elements are the DSP is already popped up.
My final touch was to add in some adhesive backed solid gems.
