Betsy's Blossoms and Punch Flower!!

I LOVE today's card!! I can't wait to show it to you, I love everything about it.  I used the color inspiration from HAND STAMPED SENTIMENTS and the sketch from Mojo Monday.  I created a tutorial for the flower that I posted on my FACEBOOK page yesterday.  Ok, just take a look!
 I LOVE the color combo: Daffodil Delight, Sahara Sand, Basic Grey, Basic Black {and a smidgen of white :-)} I absolutely LOVE the floral image from the Betsy's Blossom set- SUPER FUN!  I made the flower using the Blossom Petals Builder Punch and topped it off with a button from the Brights collection.  Then I embossed the Daffodil piece with Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder.
I used the Square Scallop in Sahara Sand under the Daffodil strip, then I layered a Basic Black piece behind that and used the Dotted Ribbon Scallop to create another layer of scallops.  I don't know if you can tell BUT I covered the large floral image with tinted dazzling details :), no surprise- I know.  Check out the inspirations I used for this card:
I have a tote bag I bought from Thirty-One that has this type of pattern (which was kind of my inspiration!) I LOVE this bag!!! The print is JUST adorable!!
 I used this sketch to point me in the direction of placement
 And of course the color pallete was thanks to Hand Stamped Sentiments!
