Brown with Flowers

Today's card from a new kit by Papertrey Ink - color pop florals.  I die cut some of the kit's preprinted flowers and leaves, then glued them to one of the brown and white A2 papers.  Embroidery floss and a matted sentiment finish the card.

It was fun to play with the kit.  I didn't really expect to enjoy using the preprinted elements, but they look very nice when die cut and layered.  It felt a bit like cheating ... did I really create this card, or did I just assemble it?  But I did add my own touch with the floss and sentiment.  And I'm happy with the results. 

Card details:

• Card stock is Ellen Hutson white linen, Papertrey Ink (PTI) harvest gold (yellow), and printed papers from PTI color pop florals kit.
• Embroidery floss is DMC 372 and 744.
• Dies are from PTI color pop florals kit (flower and leaf shapes) and PTI my mother, my friend (label shapes).
