Creative Elements Floral Basket

Stampin Up Creative Elements and Manhattan Flower Folder

Hi I've created a card for two challenges today - 

Dynamic Duos which has the colours Pool Party and Soft Suede.  What a gorgeous combination!  And....

I started with a Soft Suede base and added a panel of Pool Party on a mat of Whisper White.  The Pool Party was embossed with the Manhattan Flower Folder.  I added some White Organza Ribbon along the top.  Then I went a bit creative with Creative Elements!  I stamped the flower in Pool Party 3 times and fussy cut it out then layered it up adding a large Basic Pearl to the centre.  I cut a circle using the Circles 2 Die with another circle slightly off set cut from the middle.  This was popped up on Dimensionals and the flowers added to the bottom.  I decorated it with smaller Basic Pearls.  I think this now looks like a sweet little basket.  The sentiment is from Petite Pairs

I can't believe we are almost one week in on our October break.  Time is flying past as usual.   Christmas will be here in no time.
