Heartfelt Creations: Purple Dahlias

Hello! I have a Heartfelt Creations card to share with you today.  I have had fun coloring these beautiful dahlia images in a variety of colors.  I kept the layout simple so that the flowers would shine.  You can find the product list and instructions for recreating this card below.

HCPC 3550-Dahlia Bouquet PreCut Set
HCPC3544-All Seasons Sentiments PreCut Set
HCDP1-Daphne Paper Collection
HCD 732-Decorative Flower Pot die
Scor-Pal 368770
other supplies:  white cardstock, Memento Tuxedo Black ink, Ranger distress ink in Old Paper, baker's twine, half pearls, copic markers
Cut white cardstock to measure 4.25" x 11". Score at 5.5" and fold so that card base measures 4.25" x 5.5".  Cut panel from Daphne paper (dark purple) to measure 5.5" x 4.25" and adhere to front of cardbase.  Cut white cardstock panel to measure 4" x 5.25".  Stamp dahlia image in black ink in lower left corner. Color with copic markers.  Distress edges of panel and ink with distress ink in Old Paper.  Adhere panel to card base.  Use smaller tag from Decorative Flower Pot die set and cut tag from white cardstock.  Ink edges with distress ink.  Stamp "best wishes" in black ink from All Season Sentiments and cut out and adhere to center of tag.  Tie baker's twine around top into loopy bow. Adhere tag underneath bow.  Adhere half pearl to center of bow and around the flower image.
