Bliss by Patti Hamil

Here is a really simple, but elegant card that I did using lots of Couture Creations goodies! It's a "window" card and looks harder than it is. I just used the CC nesting dies oval to cut out the front of the card and put the sentiment on the inside to show through.

I used gems to outline part of the cut out section.

I added a cluster of blooms in the corner.

I embossed the main part of the card with the Exotic folder from the Fine Designs collection. I used a metallic cardstock. It has a beautiful shimmery finish that looks awesome embossed! The little butterfly and leaves are cut from sections embossed paper from the Fine Designs I Dream and Elegance Loren folders.

I used foam tape to add height to the main section of the front of the card. It came together easily and has a more dramatic look than it actually is!!!
