So Blessed Card with Couture Creations

I am so excited to share with you my "So Blessed to Have You in My Life" Card using some fabulous Couture Creations products.
I started by cutting a strip of Meadow Core'dinations paper, using the Hepburn Embossing Folder and embossing it by running it through my die cut machine.
The best part is it has a small slit in the fold so you can do a continuous feed of your strip of paper, all I can say is "genius".
Once I removed my strip from the Hepburn Embossing Folder I sanded  over the top with my Couture Creations Sand Block to expose the inter core of the paper.

I cut two nesting frames from Couture Creations Scallop Rectangle Nesting Dies, one from the yellow pattern paper and the other from a piece of white card stock to stamp my sentiment on.
I used the Couture Creations Nesting Scallop circles and die cut as many as I could from a piece of the 6 x 6 pattern paper. 
Using my Precision Scissors I cut each of the scallop circle, cutting every other scallop going toward the middle, making sure not to cut through the middle. I rolled each scallop using my stylist from the Handheld Essentials kit to roll my flowers on to a molding mat, tipping the edges of the flower pieces after they were rolled. I inked the edges of the flowers with brown ink to give them a bit more depth, placing them together with a small piece of the Roam Mounting Tape.
I layered my pieces together with Foam Mounting Tape and adhesive, adding a Pearl center to each of the centers with my Precision Tweezer.
 Here is a side view of my card so you are able to see the depth of the card.
I used more of the embossed strip that I had made at the beginning to finish my the inside of the card. I think it is as important to finish the inside of your card to give it a more complete look, Hugs Pammejo
