I have created a card featuring Avery Elle Wonky Stitches Dies Set which I used to create a frame as my focal point on my card.

I stamped & heat embossed Simon Says Stamps Even More Spring Flowers onto Canson XL watercolour paper using Simon's clear fine detail embossing powder & then water coloured them using Altenew watercolour pans.

The sentiment is from Simon's Sketched Flowers stamps set & has been stamped in Simon's Black Pigment Ink.

I fussy cut my images & arranged them on my frame & simply added one of Simon's Stitching Butterflies, few clear gems & Nuvo Duck Egg Blue Crystal Drops.

 Other supplies used -

Tonic Paint Brushes, SSS White Woodgrain card stock, Simon's Black Pigment ink, Canson XL watercolour paper, Elizabeth Craft Designs Double Sided Tape, Tonic Guillotine, Acrylic Blocks, Tonic Scissors, SSS Tacky Glue.
