Hey, y’all! I earned this Stone 3D Embossing Folder from the Stampin’ Up! Sale-A-Bration that’s going on right now through March 31st. Since I earned it, I have to use it, so I thought this cactus image would be a perfect match for creating a card.

I used Sahara Sand card stock and the cardbase and the embossed layer. I then added a strip of Melon Mambo (Brights) DSP. I colored the cactus with my Mossey Meadow Stampin Blends and added the flowers with Melon Mambo ink. 

I added some Shimmery Crystal Effects to the flowers. If you are in a hurry you can leave that sep off and you will still have a super cute card. While the crystal effects are drying, I took a 4 1/2″ strip of Braided Linen Thread and frayed both ends and glued down to the center of the DSP.  After the flowers are dry, I adhered it with dimensionals to the center of the DSP over the ribbon.
