Crazy Crafters blog hop with Dena Rekow

This week we are hopping with Dena Rekow and using her blog http://www.thecreativitycave.com/ as inspiration.

I spent so long looking through Dena's blog - not because I couldn't find anything, but because I loved so much!

In the end I decided to use this card as my inspiration.  I loved the simplicity and the depth created with the different green ink colours used.

And here is the card I created.

I used the open leaf from Healing Hugs stamp set and stamped it in the colours  Pineapple Punch, Mango Melody, Poppy Parade and Lemon Lime Twist - such a juicy fruit mix of colours!  

I wanted the colours to be uplifting for the sentiment that I used from the Friendly Expressions stamp set.

 I embossed the background with the Lovely Floral embossing folder to give added dimension and then mounted the embossed and stamped panels on Pineapple Punch.
I cut around the sentiment and layered it with dimensionals.

All in all, an uplifting card for someone who needs reminding how amazing they are!
