Greetings!
The Season of Chic bundle was one of the first bundles I purchased this last year and I'm thrilled that it's continuing for at least another year. However, it will only be available with the 10% bundle discount through May 1st, so if you haven't gotten it yet, my advice is to get it before the release of the new catalog to take advantage of the bundle discount. This bundle has an assortment of images to get you through the entire year, accompanied with a nice variety of messages.
For today's card I utilized much of the bundle, from the stamps for the flowers and the sentiment, to the beautiful die cut flower outlines and leaves, and the fantastic textured cutwork piece shown in the background.
Notice the subtle embossed, softly rounded edge of the piece the sentiment is stamped onto. This die from the All That dies is actually rectangular shaped so the die cutting needed a little customizing to reduce it to a square. All the details are shown below in the instructions.
