Rustic Bouquet with The Greetery

 

A friend of mine just had a major surgery that will mean recovery and physio for a while.  Along with a meal, I’m going to slip in this card to encourage her.  I purchased these beautiful dies and stamps from The Greetery called  Floral Sampler Stamp Set and the coordinating Floral Sampler Dies.  



I was totally inspired by the packaging that Betsy included in the set with this lovely palette of peach, crimson red, yellow and cool green.  So, I used the dies and stamps to create a pretty arrangement to overlay this rich warm grey background using The Greetery’s Herringbone Parquet Die .  A little ink blending on the edges gives it a bit more richness, and then I framed up the floral arrangement with the Hoopla Oval Die  also from The Greetery. 


The sentiment die is from an older retired MFT die that was perfect for the occasion.
