Measurements:
BASE: Calypso Coral CS: 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″, scraps for word dies

Emboss the Petal Pink CS layer with the new Online Exclusive Beautiful Patterns 3D Embossing Folder using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with the Base Plate #1 and the embossing plate #4.

Adhere the Petal Pink layer to the Darling Duckling layer and then adhere to the card base.

Adhere the DSP strips to the 2″ strip and adhere to the middle of the card front on top of the embossed layer.
Die cut the words Just Because from the Words of Beauty die set in Calypso Coral and Darling Duckling scraps and adhere the matte to the word die. Pop up the word dies on STampin’ Dimensionals and adhere to the bottom third of the card front.
The Petals of Beauty stamp set is a two-step stamping set and I stamped two flowers with Calypso Coral and Petal Pink and Calypso Coral combinations and adhered them around the word dies.

I die cut two foliage sprigs in Darling Duckling to tuck behind the flowers and words. I added three Pearls of Beauty coordinating embellishments to finish off this lovely card.
