Die D-Lites Inspiration | For You Floral Card with Laurie

Hello Spellbinders fans!  This is Laurie Schmidlin back with my second guest post for this month.  You can see my first Die D-Lites post here.  One of the die sets that immediately caught my eye is the Sketched Blooms die set.  I love these flowers, and as it is still snowing where I live they definitely add some sunshine inside my studio!

I started by creating the background for my card.  I die cut enough of the Sketched Blooms dies out of black cardstock to completely cover the background layer.

For the focal image, I die cut one of the Sketched Blooms dies out of yellow and green cardstock.  I trimmed the stem and adhered it under the yellow bloom.  I then die cut the same flower out of white cardstock.  I sponged on a couple shades of yellow ink onto the flower center before adhering to my card. I stamped and die cut the "for you" sentiment (from the Sentiments 2 stamp and die set).  I added some color using Copic Markers.

For embellishment, I added a few yellow sequins.
