Hello friends! Today, I'm sharing card number two from our Coffee and Cards session on Tuesday, and I have to say—I'm absolutely smitten with the Happy Hibiscus Bundle. That hybrid embossing folder? It makes creating gorgeous, 3-dimensional flowers a total breeze. These blooms practically build themselves!
If you missed the Live class, you can watch the video replay HERE! To see the tutorial for this card, you can fast-forward to the 38:42 mark.
This card came together like a dream. I started with a Secret Sea card base for its rich, moody blue, which really lets the flowers shine. Then I layered on a couple of patterns from the Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper—I just love how those sweet florals echo the stamped hibiscus without overpowering the scene.

For the flowers, I used Bubble Bath and Petunia Pop inks on Basic White cardstock with the two-step stamping technique (always one of my favorites—it gives so much dimension with hardly any effort). After stamping, I ran the flowers through the Happy Hibiscus Hybrid Embossing Folder with the coordinating die to give them that gorgeous texture and detail.

The leaves were cut from Granny Apple Green cardstock, and I love the brightness they add. They tuck in so perfectly behind the flowers and add a nice pop of color.
I stamped the sentiment in Secret Sea ink on a crisp white label from the same bundle and tied on a little linen thread bow to finish it off. A few iridescent dots were the perfect final touch—just a little sparkle to catch the light!
