MISTI and GinaK blog hop

Hi stampers! 

Happy Tuesday! Today I am participating in a very fun blog hop between the awesome Gina K Designs and My Sweet Petunia! And if you started the blog hop from the beginning you probably arrived from Gina's blog (and if you didn't head on over there, because you don't want to miss it out, I am always AMAZED by her creations and I think she's one of the sweetest people)

And after you are "done" here your next stop will be Joyce Erb

For my card I used the Boho Flowers mini kit. 
1. Stamp the flourishes onto top folding white card base, colorwith Chameleon pens and tops, then overstamped with Versaifine (using your MISTI tool) and emboss with clear embossing powder. 
2.I partially die cut the bottom only. 
3. Stamp the larger flower, then color and emboss(same as the flourish) and die cut it. 
4. Stamp the sentiment with with Versafine and embossed with clear embossing powder.
5. Create another top folding card base and trim one side to 2 1/2"
6. Adhere them together to form a gate folding card. Add Nuvo drops 

Watch the video to see how this card came to be ;)
