I am loving this set by SU and after uploading my last card for the Flourishes Challenge I thought I would do it again (but different) in blue - just for you Sue and Peggy, after seeing Sue's comment! I am doing a lot of card making over the past 2 days as the boutique that sells some of my cards has asked for more - so it is 'all stations go' for me -I am hoping to get one more done this afternoon...BUT we will see!!!
I have cut the frame from the EF 'Textured Textiles' and used 3D foam tape to attach it over the circled image...the tape I used is not very high as the circle is only narrow and anything higher would look odd! I used different DP and omitted the ribbon as these papers are both patterned. I have to say that this is the third colour I have used with these stamps and I am now not sure which is my favourite, they are all so pretty....definitely a favourite set - even more lovely as my DH insisted I got it - aww - he is a keeper!!!!
I have also added a touch of 'Kindy Glitter' in the inner flower as it brings out the colour and adds that touch of sparkle that flowers have just after the rain - beautiful!
Thank you so much for looking - please feel free to drop by and do some stamping with me - imagine the fun we could have - what do you think!!?!?

This is a beautiful card Linda! I love the colours of the flowers, the textured folder being used for the border of the flower pot and the border punch is sooo pretty. You have done a lovely job. Thank you for sharing and for all of your lovely comments. Smiles Catherine
