I took the colour scheme for this card from the Domestic Goddess DSP. This particular sheet has a very small, subtle pattern. I also used the new die from the Mini Catalogue.

It’s extremely reasonably priced when you consider how many styles of flower you can create from it.

Here’s just one combination:

Recipe
Stamp sets: Very Vintage (117693), Teeny Tiny Wishes (W115370)
Cardstock: Basic Gray (121689), So Saffron (108611), Pool Party (124391)
Ink: Basic Gray (109120)
DSP: Domestic Goddess (122355)
Punches: Scallop Trim Border (118402), Word Window (119857), Modern Label (119849)
3/8″ Taffeta Ribbon: So Saffron (122982)
Originals Dies: Blossom Party (115971)
Other: Basic Pearls (119247)
Tools: Big Shot (113439), Wheel Guide (104834)

The card base is So Saffron, matted with Basic Gray. Both card colours were also rolled with the Very Vintage wheel in Basic Gray ink. The Gray version was punched with the Scallop Trim Border and So Saffron Taffeta Ribbon was ruffled onto Sticky Strip just below the punched border. These layers were adhered direct to the card front. The large flower was die cut from Pool Party card and Domestic Goddess DSP. The small daisy was die cut from So Saffron card and the same DSP. Petals were curled gently around a Bone Folder and the same size flowers were adhered together direct and then to each other and to the card front with dimensionals. A flower centre was die cut from So Saffron Card, covered with Basic Pearls and popped up on the flower with a dimensional. The sentiment was stamped in Basic Gray ink onto So Saffron card and punched out with the Word Window. This was adhered direct to a Modern Label punched from Pool Party card, decorated with Basic Pearls and popped up on the card front with more dimensionals.
