Happy Thursday! Time for a cheerful color combination over on Create with Connie and Mary today! I knew right away that I wanted to do flowers and the awesome frame in the Ornate Layers Dies. But…it is SO funny…you have to see Mary’s card today! Talk about being on the same wavelength!

Here’s my card using the greeting in Ornate Thanks…that is the only stamping! The rest are the flowers and frame from Ornate Layers Dies!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Poppy Parade cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer o Whisper White is embossed with the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder.
- The frame was cut from Garden Green cardstock with the Ornate Layers Die.
- A 1 x 2-3/8 piece of Whisper White was stamped with Thanks from Ornate Thanks stamp set and added to the front.
- The flowers were cut from Poppy Parade and Crushed Curry cardstock with the Ornate Layers Dies, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Three Gilded Gems were added to three of the flowers.
- A bow was tied from the Garden Green Twine in Country Club Twine Pack, and added to the front with Mini Glue Dot.

OK…go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did over on Create with Connie and Mary (especially Mary’s card!). Have a great week!
