My card features a gathering of punched flowers with small dahlia embellishments for centers. The flowers coordinate with patterned paper banner strips from the Print Poetry and Patterns Stack- In Colors 2012-2014 DSPs. A simple sentiment was added using a Stampin' Write Marker and dimensionals were used to add extra depth and height. The sketch made this clean and simple card come together quickly! I hope you'll give it a try!

A Margaret classic. Bold, unique colors (unexpected and fresh) and the perfect balance of pattern.
