Good Sunday morning. My project today is fairly clean and simple using only white and pink but adding dimension and interest with the framed embossed layer and the flower and foliage. I think this card could be perfect for a birthday, shower, wedding or even a greeting for a friend. I used the impression Obsession Spiral Daisy and Leafy Branch for the floral spray and paired them with the Lifestyle Crafts Flower Embossing Folder Set and the My Favorite Things Pierced Square Frames. Have you seen the four different shaped sets of the My Favorite Things Pierced Frames? There are three frames in each of the round, oval, rectangle and square sets. I think the pierced edges add so much interest.
I embossed the white piece of cardstock and attached it to the back of the frame with thin strips of mounting tape. I applied thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the framed embossed layer and attached it to the pink card base. I like how the double mounting tape adds dimension and interest.
I cut the spiral daisy and rolled the petals from the backside of the flower using my stylus and molding pad. I rolled the flower around my tweezers and let it loosen a little before removing so the flower would look more natural and then fixed it closed with glossy accents. I cut three sections of the leafy branch. Two whole branches were attached in the corner of the frame using glossy accents. One going across the top of the frame and one down the side. I attached the flower in the corner with glossy accents and held in place until dry and secure. I cut pieces of the third branch and tucked them in under the flower to fill in the gaps and attached with glossy accents. I added a simple pearl to the flower center to finish.

Ahhhh….love the pink and white. I’ve sort of become obsessed with pink lately. Love your layout and use of the dies. I really love the new double stitched dies, too. Definitely on my wish list. Great card as always!!!
I love the embossed background! What a beautiful card!
Love this idea Kittie, that embossed piece looks so pretty with the flower inside the lovely double stitched frame. There are really a lot of pretty embossing patterns that this could be used with, love this.
OH, WOW, Kittie, that is just STUNNING! What an impact the touch of pink on the front has with all of the beautiful embossed white. Then to have framed that to put on the pink….SWOON! LOL That is amazingly beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing.
OMG that is so pretty I am going to CASE it for my stash my friend gets. This is just beautiful.
I had a WOW moment with that card. All of your cards are beautiful, this is exceptionally beautiful.
This is gorgeous, Kittie! It works not only as a beautiful card but how pretty it would look to frame and hang as decor. I love the shaped flowers. I pinned to my Kittie board as usual. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/415386765609417692/
