Parcels & Petals - steppped up

Here are the details for our final project this week using the Parcels and Petals stamps and dies bundle. The inspiration for this project was found on Pinterest - I saw a card made by a USA Demonstrator called Julie aka Stampin' Gala; I just added a couple of tweaks! 

Our project started with a panel of Whisper White (thick) that was 5mm smaller than the card base.  We stamped the flowers and leaves using second generation inking (stamped off).  The stamped panel was then embossed using the Subtle embossing folder not once, but twice - turning for the second pass through the Big Shot.

We used one of the coordinating dies to create a base for this lovely sentiment.

We also used one of the dies to cut a decorative border from Rococo Rose card, adhered to the panel with Tombow.

We used some of my favourite Scalloped Linen Ribbon - cut in half for a different look.  I love this ribbon, I can't seem to stop using it!  The ribbon has been wrapped around the panel and adhered with double sided tape.  We used Dimensionals to adhere the panel to the card base and for the sentiment too.

A pretty double bow from linen thread has been adhered with a rolled up mini glue dot.

The ends of the bow have been curled using a bone folder - such a pretty way to deal with all those end pieces don't you think?

A trio of sparkly jewels finished off this pretty card.

The inside of the card has been stamped and the front of the envelope too and, because I love these pretty flowers I stamped on the back of the envelope!
