Laurie's Fabulous Favorites

Hello friends.  This week for Laurie's Fabulous Favorites, Laurie is asking us what our favorite card style is.  Like most things with card making, I have more than one favorite...I just happen to like it all!  Most of the time I opt for CAS, or lots of layers and flowers!  So today I decided to combine the three and make a CAS layered floral card.  Take a look:


I started with a plain white card base and added the Shape Shifter's: Oval ...die cut in white to stick with more of the CAS look.  (plus I just really like the look of white on white!)  Next I embossed in white on water color cs the flower image from Especially You and then water colored it with my Zigs before die cutting it out.  Here's a closer up so you can see my water coloring better:


I layered my flower over the top of the die cut oval and then for my sentiment, I used the dies from Especially You.  After die cutting the "for you" in black, I used some WOS to add some pizazz to the sentiment, and then once dry added that over the top of the flower.  I finished off my card with some baker's twine and a few iridescent sequins.
