A Prayer for the Day

I really love this sentiment from the new Floral Key Collection from Heartfelt Creations so of course I had to feature it on a card.  Really you only need one flower on a card to make it pop and that's just what I did on this one 

 
 I added a little surprise on the inside and a place where you could write your personal message.  All in all this card came together beautifully..  It's always simple to create such elegance with Heartfelt.  Want to know how I made this?  See all the products and step by step directions below.

Directions for Project:

Cut panel from designer card stock.  Stamp with brown distress ink sentiment and heat set with clear embossing powder.  Mount on solid base and sand the edges for a distressed look.  Stamp 7 flowers in varying sizes and cut out with matching die.  Color your petals with ink and manipulate petals with McGill Tools.  Stack your petals and glue together to for a large blossom.  Paint the tips of your flower with glitter paint and finish off your flower with a sparkly bauble.  Stamp two leaves on cream color card stock, cut out with matching die and curl your leaves with McGill Tools.  Ink lightly your edges of the leaves and rub inward leaving some of the cream showing.  Attach leaves and flowers to card as shown.  For the inside of the card cut cream color card stock and stamp image in the lower right hand corner of the card with the image slightly off the card.  Color with markers of your choice.  Glue to the interior for a finished project.
