The background paper for this card is from The Paper Company. I found it at Archiver's. I stamped the image with Versmark ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I then added various shades of yellow and gold pastels (chalk) to the centers of the flowers. The sentiment is from Impression Obsession, and I stamped that in black (Memories) ink and matted it with black cardstock. I then added black pop dots to the back on the top edge only. This is a "kick stand" style card, meaning the top base of the card is cut about an inch shorter than the inside of the card, and the sentiment is the mounted to match the length of the inside of the card. I added ribbon to the top fold area. Enjoy!
