Today, I am sharing a card I created for a special friend and co-worker. She is beautiful inside and out! I love this gorgeous Periwinkle ink color! It is so pretty.

I used the following products to create this card:

~NEW~ Beautiful Friend die set

~NEW~ Groovy Daisies stamp set

~You Matter Background stamp

~A2 Rectangles

~Periwinkle and Flannel Pawsitively Saturated ink

~Dusky Pawsitively Saturated Gems

Here are the steps I used to create this card:

1. Cut a white card stock panel to 4 x 5 1/4″
2. Stamp the Groovy Daisies Stamp using Periwinkle ink.
3. Over top of the daisies, stamp the You Matter Background Stamp using Flannel ink.
4. Ink blend with Periwinkle a 4 X 4″ piece of card stock.
5. Die cut the words from the Beautiful Friend die, out of the ink blended piece.
6. Die cut the shadow from the Beautiful Friend die set from white card stock.
7. Adhere the Beautiful Friend words to the shadow piece using liquid adhesive.
8. Center and adhere the Daisy panel to a top folding, A2 card base.
9. Adhere the sentiment, adding foam tape to the back for dimension.
10. Lastly, add some gems to some of the the daisy centers.

I am smitten with this newly released Beautiful Friends die set. I love the pretty font and the size makes it a perfect focal point for any card project. And the Groovy Daisies made a gorgeous background.
