Cardabilities #72

I'm so excited to share this card with you today. It was inspired by a card I saw on pintrest awhile back. The sketch is #72 from Cardabilities. I really liked how versatile the sketch was. And the DT   was inspiring with all of the spring colors they used.
 

Wedding season will soon be upon us so I decided to make a bridal shower card. If you are one of my friends getting married this summer, SPOILER ALERT. The papers are scraps from a previous layout, I believe they are both from Colorblock. The flowers are a find from K & Company. The heart I cut out using the Cricut and embossed with the Swiss Dot folder from Cuttle bug.
 
To make the dress is simple to create. Start with a basic heart cut out. Then starting near the middle of the heart layer flowers like a pyramid. 1 flower in the first row,2 in the second and so on until you have a nice dress shape. I added in a few tiny flower just to fill space and add more sparkle to the dress.
 
The inside of the card features the same papers as the front and is accented along the top and bottom with white ribbon.
I used the floral pattern paper to decorate the outside flap of the envelope. I also added a flower embellishment. I like the sweet touch it adds.
Here the two pieces are together. This card was super easy and quick to put together. Hope you give the idea a try.
