Sentimental Park Thinking of You in Layered Floral Frame

 Greetings!

I am always inspired by the beautiful samples shown in the catalogs accompanying each stamp set or page of products.  I am currently loving the Regency Park suite collection of products, so had my catalog open to the samples shown with this collection.  After flipping through all the beautiful prints in the pack of Regency Park Designer Series Papers, I had it narrowed down to three combinations I wanted to work with for my card.  After debating on a layout, I started playing with the die cut labels which are part of the Sentimental Park bundle.  Two of the three labels have cut out flowers and outline flowers extending off opposite corners of the label along with a smooth edged label.  Imagine my surprise to realize they are designed for the smooth edged label to slide in under openings in the largest label, therefore creating a beautiful framed edge!  How fabulous!  


Isn't it lovely!  Having the white label slide into the die cut openings where the flowers are is a really lovely feature, and the first time I've encountered a die created to do this.  The little floral dies are perfectly sized to layer onto the flowers in the label to add color and dimension.  So stinkin' cute!

One of the samples on page 30 of the Jan-April 2023 mini catalog shows a card with a fun diagonal piece of the print, so I opted to adopt it for this card.  These two prints provide a beautiful backdrop for the focal point, and it really goes together quickly.  The part that took the longest was figuring out which pair of prints to use and what colors to make the fancy label layer and the little flowers.
