I have started by stamping the Avery Elle - Petals and Stems roses using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento Luxe™ Mixed Media Pigment Ink in Rose Bud and the leaves in IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Memento Luxe™ Mixed Media Pigment Ink in Pistachio
 
 

The Flowers and leaves have been cut out and extra depth been adding using Memento™ Markers in Rose Bud, Pistachio.  The flower centers have been stamped using ® Delicata™ Pigment Ink






Ribbon Banners Spellbinders™ Shapeabilities® has been cut and embossed using the Spellbinders™ Grand Calibur Cutting Machine and using the Die as a Stencil, sponged with Memento Luxe™ Pistachio and an Aqua Brush


IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® Sponge Daubers™.  A sentiment from the Avery Elle stamp set has been added using IMAGINE Crafts®/Tsukineko® VersaFine™ Archival Pigment Ink in Onyx Black.




The card base and Authentique Paper patterned paper is cut using the A2 Floral Ribbon Threader Spellbinders™ Nestabilities®






The card has been finished by adhering the patterned paper to the card base and layering the flowers on using foam tape, as shown in the photos.  The leaves are glued onto the base and tucked under the flowers  with the Want2Scrap bling flourish added.  Mount the sentiment on foam tape and finish off with pearls added to the lacy border.
