The enitre hop list with links is below in the InLinkz list!!

ALL SUPPLIES ARE LISTED BELOW!!

I created my background panel by embossing a 4×5.5″ white cardstock panel with the embossing folder from the Crafty Your Life Project Kit (CYL) Marigold Butterflies. I then spattered the panel with the teal from the Metallic Watercolor Set. Next, I went direct to paper on a .5x 5.5″ piece of white cardstock with the Easy Breezy Fresh Dye Ink. I glued this to the back of my embossed panel with 1/4″ of the colored cardstock showing on the left side of the panel.

I stamped my the floral image from the CYL Marigold Butterflies with Obsidian Black ink and heat embossed with Crystal Clear Crisp Embossing Powder. I then used the stencils from the kit to color the images. I grabbed four ink colors of Fresh Dye Ink for the flowers – Pink Crystal, Mauve, Berrylicious, and Acai Berry. Then I used Berry Cool and Easy Breezy for the leaves. I cut this out with the coordinating die.

I used Instant Dimension Foam Tape to pop up my flower image and cut off anything that was hanging over the edge of the background panel.

From the Versatile Greetings Die Set, I die cut the shadow die for ‘Hey’ from white cardstock then from black cardstock I die cut the word ‘Hey’ four times. These were adhered and stacked together for dimension, then adhered to the shadow piece. I adhered this to the background panel in the upper left corner. I heat embossed a sub sentiment from the CYL Marigold Butterflies in White Crisp Embosssing Powder on Black Cardstock and die cut it using the Featured Sentiments Die Set. I popped it up with Instant Dimension Foam Tape on one end and placed below my main sentiment.

To finish the card I added some Gem Sparkles: Iridescent Crystals around my floral image. The panel was adhered to a top folding heavy weight cardbase.
