Stamping Sensations DT card

 

It's that time again - time for another challenge at Stamping Sensations and this time the theme is Summer Flowers. That's just the type of challenge I like!
The other ladies on the DT have made gorgeous floral creations so do nip over and check them out. There is  a great prize as always..
from Heartfelt Creations

For this card I have used Tonic Studios Butterflies Beautiful 8x8 paper pad with white and purple grape cardstock from Papermill Direct.
I used the Trellis Wall die from Tonic Studios to create the aperture in the white cardstock - I just elongated it and used the "waste". Then I added a Maria die cut with a flower and a bud made from the leaf punch from the Tonic Studios Punch and Stamp set (Carnation, Sweet William and Peony) . The double strips at the bottom are from the Butterfly strip punch and I used three of the tiny "waste" butterflies to add to the top of the card.
