Heartfelt Creations Wednesday

Hi everyone, welcome to our Wednesday inspiration post with Heartfelt Creations.  My card today features some of the new stamps and coordinating dies from the "Old English Garden" collection.  I absolutely love the beautiful vintage images and gorgeous flowers on this collection.  For this card I went with the soft colors and vintage feel.
I stamped the teacup on Gina K cardstock and colored with Spectrum Noir markers.
The flowers I stamped on patterned paper, the leaves I stamped on soft green paper and cut everything with the coordinating dies.  I used embossing tools to shape the flower and leaves giving them some dimension.
Here is another closeup of one of the flowers, I placed adhesive pearls and pearl swirls as a final touch.
And here is the inspiration for the layout of my card, another fantastic sketch from Card Patterns.
Thank you so much for visiting today, hope you have a fantastic day.
