My project features the Nested Essentials dies which include these interesting shapes!

I used five die cuts to cover the card front. Three were cut from White cardstock and embossed with an embossing folder. The other two were cut from coordinating two tone cardstock.

Another smaller die cut was stamped with Petunia Pop ink and added with dimensionals.

Floral embellishments were created using the Extraordinary Flora Washi tape and die!
