Wow- simple, clean & elegant?  Can they really all represent this card?  I think so........I love it!

I so struggled when creating this card, as I usually don't layer the same color on top of each other.  But I really like it!  And I thought that this punch went really well too, when adding these words!

I used the Flowering Foils DSP for the center.  This is a FREE Sale-a-bration choice that you can get with a $50.00 order now, until 3/31 or until it sells out!  These daisies are pretty!  They are silver & copper both!  They are just stunning in person!

I layered the DSP with my new favorite die right now!  It is the stitched scalloped rectangle.  This die comes in the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.  NOTE:  This dies are still available to order at this time, but they are on back order & are showing that they will arrive at the SU! warehouse around 4/13/20. 

I used the cool, Scripty 3D Embossing Folder as the background of the card!  In person, it just adds so much more to the finished look!
This is one of the All Occasion cards I created for my annual class.  

stamp set:  'Peaceful Moments'
