I have been happily using my Spice Cake Designer paper throughout the fall and the pack is almost depleted. I plan to use every yummy last piece of paper in it, though, so I pulled it out one more time to make today's card. I was inspired to use one of the flowers from the patterned paper as my main image. I handcut it a few times and layered the various parts with Dimensionals. The resulting flower is very cute!
You'll also recognize one of the sentiments from the Hand-Penned Holidays set, embossed with the awesome Pewter powder. Some of the edges were distressed using the Cutting Kit distressing tool, and I added a few pearls for good measure. There's a lot of layers to this card, but it was still fairly quick and easy to put together. I hope you like it!
