For a Wonderful Friend

Hey there!  Popping in with a card I made for the Card Concept.  I used the Concord & 9th Wonderful Florals bundle and lots of distress inks.  I stamped the image with Antique Linen because I was originally going for a no line look, but in the end I outlined all of the flowers, leaves and berries because it was a bit challenging for me to achieve the no line look with some of the flowers.   But practice makes perfect so I will definitely be taking on coloring this image using the no line technique in the future.  I was inspired by all the colors in the inspiration photo for my card that I think fits into the clean and layered category.   After coloring the main image I die it with the matching die and then die cut the word wonderful using that matching die.   The letters were colored with distress ink and then popped up.  I adhered the piece to a kraft cardstock base and then added the rest of the sentiment by embossing it on vellum using Imagine Crafts black embossing ink.  Compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.   Please see list of additional supplies below.
