Hello, Pinkfresh friends! It’s TaeEun here, sharing a card with a DIY floral border . It’s my first post after a one-year break :) ! It feels so good to join the amazing Card Design Team and to play cards with you all again! 

For this card, I stenciled the floral cluster from the Delighted for You suite twice and cut them out to arrange the flowers along the perimeter of the card, creating a beautiful floral border. 

To begin, I pressed the Delighted for You image twice on some white cardstock using Detail Black ink. To stencil the flowers in two tones, I picked Apricot, Coral Reef, Clementine and Passion Fruit. For the first layer of the leaves, I chose Grassy Knoll and Ocean Breeze, and for the second layer, I used Aquamarine. After finishing the stenciling, I cut both images using the coordinating die and set them aside. 

To create the background, I went with the same color scheme like the flowers - orange and pink - using the same ink colors. I ink blended two diagonal corners of an A2 sized white panel in orange and the other two in coral pink, making them darker towards the edge. I left the center of the panel uncolored. To add some texture to the background, I dry embossed the panel using the Diamond Hot Foil Plate and adhered it to a white cardbase.

For a floral border, I cut the Delighted for You image and arranged them using foam tape as shown in the picture. 

The sentiment from the same suite was pressed in Detail Black and cut with the coordinating die. I used two layers of foam tape to add the sentiment to the center of the card for more dimension. 

Lastly, I scattered a few Butterscotch Glitter Drops on the card and added some glitter to the center of the flowers. 

That’s it from me for today! Hope you enjoyed the making process of my card!

Have a crafty day!
