Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful

I had to create a pretty card on this not so pretty day.... rain, rain and more rain on the way! Yuck!

I used the French Flea Market paper by Photoplay... it is just so gorgeous!

I fussy cut the flowers as well as the stamped sentiment.  I die cut the envelopes using the Wplus9 Love Notes die.  The 'beautiful' is a Concord & 9th die.  Of course I had to add a bit of stitching :)

I was inspired by the Tuesday Morning Sketch... although I flipped it the other way:

I am also playing along with the Fab 'n' Funky Challenge - flowers and the Simon Says Challenge - use more than one  Die Cut.

    This card is a beauty, Laurel. Pretty, pretty papers on this one. Adore the little envelopes and that sentiment is such a good reminder! So very well done! Hope the rains bring you gorgeous flowers! :)
