Destination China Inspiration | Floral Greeting Cards with Elena

Hi dear friends!  Elena Salo is here today! I'm happy to introduce you the new collection from Spellbinders - Destinations China by Lene Lok. And for today's post I created two cards using this beautiful release.

Here I used several dies from Destination China Collection. The main set that I've use here was Lucky Clouds. When I die-cut it for the first time I noticed that with leftovers I can create very beautiful flowers.

So I made them and embellished my cards.

For the second card I used Chinese Coin Window die from the new collection to create a circle border. I partially die-cut Lucky Cloud Die using pink cardstock and adhered the circle border on it cutting out all excess.

I stamped the sentiment in the lower part inside the circle adhered flowers and leaves and foam mounted it onto the card base.
