Little Bitty Mini Cards.......

This week over at Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge it isn't a traditional sketch like we're use to seeing but three mini cards to use as a notecard or to accompany a gift,what a fab idea !!!!!


Here's my three little mini cards:


I took the 4x4 mini cream base card and dry embossed it using the Stampin'Up Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder then inked the edge with Crumb Cake. I took some Very Vanilla cardstock and with the SU Decorative Label Punch,punched out the sentiment label. Now for the fun bit,using SU Baby Blossoms stamp set I stamped a collage of all the different leaves and flowers in Rose Red,Baja Breeze,Certainly Celery,Pink Pirouette,Real Red and So Saffron leaving space in the centre for the 'For You' sentiment.
Using scraps of Springtime Vintage papers,I punched out a variety of flowers using SU Boho Blossoms,I layered them together using a rhinestone brad through the centre and scrunched them to get a more dimensional flower. I made a double bow to go around the card adding the flower and  tag to the centre of the bow,for the tag I used the Tiny Tag stamp set,finally I added the label using 3D foam.

Have a great weekend.
