Mother's Day Flora - Stampin' Up!® Extraordinary Flora

   My card today is one I made for Mother's Day but it got buried down in the folder so I think it's high time to share it!  I used a bit of neglected product in the Extraordinary Flora bundle.  I still love this larger stamp with all the different flowers and leaves!

  I pulled together a bunch of different products for this softly colored floral beauty!  The card base and embossed background is Cloud Cover.  The embossing folder is Beautiful Pattern which is currently on the Last Chance list at a discount.  

  Next I stamped the Extraordinary Flora stamp onto a Basic White banner cut with the Party Banner dies.  I used Basic Gray for the stamping as that was a softer look than a black ink.  I used my Stampin' Blends to color the flowers, leaves and filled in the background.  That took a minute but I think the results are worth it.

  The Nature's Symphony dies were used to cut the Soft Sea Foam leaves which are tucked behind the sentiment label.  The sentiment is from the long retired Well Scripted stamp set.  The label is die cut using the retired Tasteful Label die set.

  I stamped an extra flower and colored it and die cut and popped it on dimensionals above the label.  I had a white seam binding fork bow in my stash of ribbon scraps and it fit perfectly in the corner.  A few Pool Party Opaque Faceted Gems match the Cloud Cover pretty closely for the final touch.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
