Fabulous Florets - Try Stampin' on Tuesday 23

This is the card I made for this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday here  The sketch indicated that the card should be a square one, but I made a regular A2 card.


The floral image was stamped first in Versa Mark and then Pacific Point ink, clear embossing powder applied to the surface and set with an heat tool.  Three leaves were stamped with Versa Mark and embossed with Wild Wasabi embossing powder.  the flower and the leaves were cut out, and applied to a square of Whisper White cardstock embossed with the Flower Garden embossing folder.
The blue flower was attached to the Whisper White card stock with stampin dimensionals.  Before attaching the leaves, they were partially colored with a Wild Wasabi marker. Before matting with Pacific Point card stock, the edges of the Whisper White was inked with Pacific Point ink. A Pearl was placed in the center of the flower.
The next layer is a strip of Wild Wasabi embossed with the Square Lattice embossing folder.  Pearls were placed at both ends.
The next 2 layers were from the Beyond the Garden Designer Series paper.
The base of the card is Pacific Point card stock.  It is matted with Whisper White cardstock, which was first stamped with the Baroque motif stamp and then embossed with the Perfect Polka dot embossing folder.  The edges and surface were sponged with Pacific Point ink.
